300 YDS 8 lb P-Line Fluoroclear is $7.99 at Bass Pro.
Essentially it is mono with a fluorocarbon coating. I've used in with success but not for trolling. Usually I use 2-4 lb as leader for trout. Not sure is this applies to fluoroclear but fluorocarbon does absorb water and sinks while mono and braid float. If you are trolling a deep diving crankbait, I would assume fluorocrabon is good to get the crankbait down in the water column.
From what I've heard, stripers are not line shy so fluorocarbon may be an expensive way to go. Like others here, my go to line is Trilene XL. You can buy it just about anywhere and it runs about $5.99 for 330 YDS.
