This year I'm going to try flourocarbon line.  I'm planning 17# test for my MH multiple use baitcasting rod.  I'll be using it for flip/pitch, lipless crank, spinnerbaiting among others.  What I was looking for was input on line performance.  What problems can I anticipate in using flouro and what are some ways you have found to minimize the problems?

  Thanks, Fatz

Sometimes depending on the brand fluoro is pretty stiff in higher lb test ratings.  A quick shot of KVD line conditioner or Real Magic solves this problem.  Other wise its just combating the price of line.  I'm going to be using a cheap mono backing and then putting on 75 yards of fluoro which should be more than enough to make long casts and the like.

I've got 15lb seagar, stronger and clearer than others that i've seen or tested

I throw braid with a Flouro leader. It works really well and you can buy a small spool of that expensive flouro.

make sure to use swivels when it calls for it   if u get line twists with fluoro it can really create some problems   since flouro tangles alot easier than other lines
