south tackle

Well yes but they also caught fish before boats were invented. I'm sure you have fished from a boat. I never said you can't catch a fish without using FC. I said it was invented for a reason and if it helps disguise the line connected to the lure I'm going to use it. Like I said to each his own. Whatever makes you more confident is what you should use. I'm not concerned with the abraison either. I fish both fresh and saltwater. I pull out 15 pound taug out of wrecks full of metal jagged edges and have no problem with FC at all. It would be very boring if we all used the same exact set up. That is what makes fishing fun. You can learn new techniques and methods on a daily basis.

I disagree. Even in brush a fish can see the braid tied to the lure. My opinion is if I'm spending money on boat, tackle, gas, etc. I might as well spend a couple extra bucks on flouro if it helps at all. To each its own however and whatever makes you confident is really the most important thing.

Interested in hearing your reasoning behind this statement?

All great advice. Color does not matter. You should be using flouro in all circumstances.
