[QUOTE="WTM, post: 4743543, member: 6230"] as far as the breakage issue, this is what a lot of folks dont understand about flouro, its not elastic. when it breaks it will usually break 4-6 feet up the line from lure attachment. the reason is, that contrary to belief, flouro does stretch. the problem lies is that it does not retract like mono. it basically stretches and stays stretched until it is thin and weakened enough that it breaks at the point where the greatest force is applied and flipping fish in the boat increases it even more. this is why “pro” anglers will cut off 8 ft or so and retie after a couple of fish or if they play a big for very long.
