Fluoro Or Mono 2025

rippin-lips reply :

What do you prefer for weightless senkos and why if you'd like to include that also.

I use fluoro for it's slack line sensitivity and it's invisibility in clear water.

John G reply :

Braid......Cause Gary Yamamato uses braid.

Tywithay reply :

I like fluoro for the slack line sensitivity as well. However, I often use mono with my senkos for the slightly slower sink rate. I think it gives them a little different action on the drop, as opposed to fluoro. I will usually have one rod with each tied on if I am senko fishing, so I can change back and forth if I think one way is working better or worse.

CJV reply :

I use 12lb Sunline sx1 braid with a tip of 6lb-8lb FC.

WIGuide reply :

I would go with fluoro

J Francho reply :

I like braid with a leader of fluoro or tough copoly.

Mike L reply :

I like Floro...don't really use mono that much anymore

Been using Pline CX premium clear/blue 15pd.

I know.... Fish can see it.. Too limp.. Wimpy line

Just bought some Tuf-line super cast in 30

Going to spool up.... Now!

RipSomeLips reply :

I use fire line cause it casts a mile. I always put a fluoro leader on it however.

iabass8 reply :

straight fluoro always. for the exact reason you said. slack line sensitivity

bflp3 reply :

Straight fluoro for sensitivity, invisibility, and a faster sink rate.

fishbowl807 reply :

I'm not a fan of fluoro had to many bad experiences with it. I'll stick with mono never had a problem with it and it's a lot cheaper.

frogflogger reply :

90% of the time it would be mono for me - I like the slow sink rate - fluoro too fast and braid too slow - but I'll use them in different situations.

Hyrule Bass reply :

mono, always mono

rawjuice reply :

I dont really have a preferance, I dont finesse much but I have done both mono and fluoro. I see the advantage of both sides. Slower sink rate and possibly better action on fall with mono, but more sensitivity and less line visibilty with fluoro. Hmmmm, my finesse rod, I have a abu orra sx30 with 2 spools, one with half 20lb braid/ half 8lb fluoro, the other spool with straight 8lb mono. I will have to test out the difference this year!

I'm with ww2farmer on this one.

rippin-lips reply :

So it seems the majority of us use fluoro or at least a fluoro leader attached to our main line.

Hattrick7 reply :

I was just using mono and didn't have any issues. I decided to try fluoro and I've been fishing it about three days now and all I can say is wow, the sensitivity is really that much more responsive. Definitely a big enough difference for me to start using it for all bottom bait applications for sure.

It feels a little weird though almost like a really thin wire in terms of stiffness.

iceintheveins reply :

I use mono and a fluoro leader, because with jigs and all plastics I am a line watcher and I like some visibility.

Arv reply :

braid to fluoro leader

aavery2 reply :

spinning - braid to fc, casting - fc much for the same reasons already mentioned.

Me too......I really like the Tuf-Line Supercast but have to order it because I am unable to find it locally..........then the fluoro leader.

yep.

SenkoGuru reply :

I really like fluoro for the reason already stated but right now at this time of year I am using Seaguar Senshi Mono. The reason is because I am fishing thick grass this time of year and the Fluoro get hung into the grass, it sinks ahead of the Senko and the line is down in the grass and that really bothers me. Also I like for the Senko to fall as slow as it can and the Mono makes that happen.

Jrob78 reply :

Fluoro for me. I use fluoro for just about everything these days.

TTS reply :

I like straight braid when fishing around heavy weeds. I run a 3-4 foot fluoro leader in more open water. The braid can act as a strike indicator on light bights. Tom

Oregon Native reply :

Tried some 15lb Power Pro on my crankin stick with a 12 fluro leader yesterday. As long as I didn't snap cast life was good. Caught a bunch of fish up to four lbs. Fun day....believe I'm keeping it on.
