[QUOTE="redbug, post: 349693, member: 71"] floro SUCKS!!!!! that's my thoughts I tried floro for a tournament and broke off 6 or 7 fish all on the hookest I have been told that because floro doesn't stretch I don't need to set the hook as hard. Well that doesn't fly with me When I set a hook I want to cross the fishes eyes. I have also ben told that floro is very sensitive to heat and while cinching down the knot that if it isn't wet enough the heat will cause it to break. I have had very few knots break on the hookset with mono and even in clear water the fish seem to bite I am sure that you will get lots of people telling you how great it is and if you use X brand and tie Y knot you wont have a problem I say if it aint broke my granddad used white line on his reels and caught fish so I say stick with mono cause FLORO SUCKS!!!!!!!
