I bought some Hi Seas 175 Lb. fluorocarbon leader online & got it in the mail a few days ago. When I got it I was kind of peeed at how the coil was crammed in the box then I noticed that the line has a light yellow tint to it. Is it normal for fluorocarbon line to yellow over time? Not sure if the line is still good & if I should send it back?

I had some 130lb Seaguar do the same thing, but I got it for free so I made some leaders with it anyway. I haven't had any problems with it and have caught enough fish on them to assume its fine? I would probably be a little mad if I had just ordered it though
