If what you bought was fluorocarbon you will certainly have Line memory issues but Rav said give it a stretch and it will be better.
Mono now like Anthony said is much better but does depend on which formulation you purchased. eg Trileene XL (extra limp) does not have much memory problems but XT (extra tuff) on the other hand will certainly have some. And cheap stuff is just crap period.
