I currently use braid on all my reels because of its strength. Should i switch this up for any reason and what are the advantages of fluorocarbon?

#1 (as a leader): Much greater abrasion resistance.

#2  (as a leader): The ability to break-off when you need to.

#3 (as mainline) Better sensitivity with bottom contact, especially with slack in the line.

If I can add a #4...

Better action on baits--I started using fluoro originally for weightless plastics. I think if you're going to get a fall action right on something like a wacky rigged senko, fluoro is a MUST. I definitely noticed more bites on weightless plastics once I made the switch.

Eventually, I moved over to fluoro for almost all my fishing, save fishing heavy grass/pads, topwater, and fishing jigs in heavy cover. I leave that stuff to braid or mono. Everything else fluoro just seems to excel. Better depth, better action, great abrasion resistance, less stretch, more confidence for me, and I truly believe more fish caught in most cases.

That's not to say you can't do it with the other lines. Obviously, you can, I just believe fluro is the best tool for the job in a lot of cases. It's your Mitre saw for angled cuts. You could use a table or circular saw, you're just going to get it right (or acute, or obtuse... okay not funny) more easily with the best tool. 

Also more invisible than braid
