Hybrid Line Vs Floro 2025
mhilgtx reply :
I recently bought a roll of 12lb BPS KVD Floro for my first dip into something other than mono. and man o man the difference in sensativivity is amazing.
So my question is do the copolymer or hybrid lines have the same type of sensitivity? I assume they will be much softer.
tater555 reply :
From what I have experienced the hybrid lines (copolymer) are just a tad less sensitive than flouro, but alot more manageable. But I have to admit that the only flouro I have tried is seagar red label, and the only copolymer I have tried is yozuri hybrid. I now run yozuri hybrid on all my rods except for my flipping rod and have no problems detecting bites, plus the breaking strength is amazing with it.

My experience exactly. Haven't touched flouro since I discovered Yozuri
Preytorien reply :
I use YZ Hybrid and McCoy Mean Green and both are incredibly limp. After I treat it with KVD Line and Lure it hangs off my spinning reel like braid.....no twist. I love the stuff.
Trenton reply :
Wow so the hybrid is that good? I've been looking at it for some time now but haven't bought any just yet. I rarely string up a full floro spool mostly use it as a leader for clear water or drop shot/finesse techniques. Might have to look into yozuri

That has to be one of the funniest post ever..... only good for small bass..... ha ha
kikstand454 reply :
I also experimented with various flouro's. ... but in the end I went back to YZ hybrid on all rods except flippin and frogs.
Alonerankin2 reply :
I tend to use a fc in 6 for wacky rigging, Yo for about everything else, with cxx, and cx being used as well. Silverthread is a good line.
However, I'm now very concerned that I will
Only catch small bass on FC line! What shall I do?

Thanks guys I am making the switch. How is it with bottom contact?

Yo-Zuri is a great all purpose line.

Have used YH for about 5 years now in many applications..awesome overall line. Like the low stretch too 
My only negative is that it appears Yo-Zuri is now only making the line in clear. I really liked the Camo Green... Anyone have any scoop why it's going to only one color?

Shop around, Yo-Zuri is still making green and smoke. Green blends better in clear
water, smoke in stained water.
Mike L reply :
Well...
I use floro for all bottom contact presentation's except punching matts.
Yo Zuri for all moving baits.
Right or wrong it works for me.

Its better, so good I just bought a 3lb spool in pink! That's 14 THOUSAND yards

The more I think about these "which line is best " threads, the more I believe that it's like asking
"Which brand of gas and what octane is best to use in my vehicle ?"
They all work but everyone has a favorite which often revolves around performance & price.

Choporoz reply :
As I've said on this and many other threads,I'm a YoZuri fan. However I have to admit that I have some nagging doubts when I read monthly Bassmaster and every single pro is always claiming that they're spooled with flouro
BrianinMD reply :
There are no rules to which line to use, or reels or rods....... use what works for you.

Well you should use the recommended octane level for the vehicle as to the brand I have always been told to switch up as often as possible due to slightly different detergants and other properties brand to bring. In general gasoline is gasoline is gasoline the differences being the additives. At least that is the way a TMC USA engineer explained it to me one day.
As far as lines go it might be the same I don't know,but I am trying to learn.
Darren. reply :
I, too, have BPS fluoro (white box) and do use
it from time to time.
But I mainly use Yo-Zuri Hybrid in green for my
leaders. One reason is because I have bought
so much of it (for cheap) in 600 yard spools.
That lasts a LONG time when used as a leader!!
So I agree that it is a great all-around line. I have
no problem using it for bottom contact, wacky,
TX, Mojo, Jika, cranks, spinnerbaits, etc.

Thanks for the tip.
I'm all set on the gasoline deal - It was an analogy.

Stop reading that propaganda and sales pitches. All you need it right here.

Anyone use YZ Hybrid for jigs? If so, how does it perform?

I plan to be using it for 1/4 once finesse jigs this year
kikstand454 reply :
I use hybrid for everything.
I stopped throwing flouro on jigs. Deep or shallow. I barely noticed any difference at all. MAYBE a touch less sensitive? I doubt it. Its probably mental. Absolutely 0 regrets and no plans to change in the foreseeable future.

This all day long. Haven't noticed a change in sensitivity. Happy I'm not the only one
mhilgtx reply :
So BPS doesn't have Yo Zuri line. Or at least the one by me doesn't so I got some P Line Floroclear to try. I also got some cc and cxx figured I would see which of the three I like best.
Trenton reply :
Hop on ebay i just found a guy selling yo zuri in 600yd rolls for 7.99 I got it in 4,8,10lb just gotta get 12,15lb and I'm set. I also got 300yards of power pro 65lb for $10 on an auction
mhilgtx reply :
Got to fish for a few minutes today and the P Line Floroclear is much much more cast able than the BPS KVD 100% florocarbon. Sensativity was very comparable.
Maxximus Redneckus reply :
Floro has to many cons for me to even look at a box instore.i can feel a fish think with my calluosed hands and i see my line move when a Fish farts all with mono
