I've quit fluoro a few times but after breaking off a fish or two I go right back.
Darn you fluorocarbon! Why can't I quit you! Wow.

I switched to suffix siege 17 lb. Great feel, little memory, takes the abuse of all these stumps I fish around, only use floro for leaders sometimes

Never liked it and as long as it stays as stiff as it is these days I never will.
Sounds like a quote my EX-girlfriend used to tell me.......no wonder I never married her.

I love fluorocarbon line. I use it for almost all my fishing. I love how much more sensitive it is than mono!!!
Yes it does cost more, but it's totally worth it in my opinion.

I hated fc for years because it was bridl, until I found out a uni knot is key! I have a hard time breaking off if hung up and its pretty sensitive. All that aside I will use braid mono and fc, they all have a use

I use Invizx. Not the cheapest but I simply have more confidence in it than many other lines.
Crankbaits and cold winter fishing I'll throw P-Line CX Premium. Frogs in garbage I'll use braid. Everything else is Invizx.

So, to answer the question, for me, I use all of the different types of line and try my best to use the right one for the right application and situation. Exactly what I do.

All I can say is 2 guys with equal skill fishing in the same boat and 1 is using fluro and the other isn't....you will find out real quick which line catches more fish. Not true at all.

Flouro is like an expensive high maintenance girlfriend. You have to tell her often how much you love her, how purdy she is, constantly shower her with love and attention. If you can stomach the effort, you will usually end up with a smile on your face. See

I am trying to like it. Not there yet. Too many break offs
