I prefer Frog Hair, especially for still waters but it's pricey unless you can buy it in bulk spools off of ebay.

Has anybody tried the Maxima fluorocarbon?

I will put a vote for P-Line as well.  Actually all of the different lines by P-Line are far superior to any that I used. 

The CFX Flouro should run about 8-10 bucks depending where you get it.

after using many different types (maxima,frog hair, p-line , seaguar) Seaguar blue label seems to be the toughest one I have tried. All the others are ok but none of them stood up like seaguar. It seemed to have a tougher outside coating and it is not soft like the maxima or frog hair is. Those products work fine for fly leader but for river fishing with split shot or pencil lead seaguar has been outstanding. They are also the inventors of fluorocarbon for fishing line.
