Title: Looking for a good flourocarbon
Post by: Flukedood on April 18, 2007, 08:37:55 AM
On my trout poles I set them up with Cabelas Flouro 4# test.. The stuff sucks, Major twists, tangles and knots. I am looking for a Light Flourocarbon 4# preferably That doesnt Knot up and screw up off the spool every 5 minutes. Any recomedations? Thanks guys.

i use pline on my trout rod.  i have tried both 100% flourocarbon and the one that has mono inside and flouro on the outside.  both worked great for me.

I don't understand why you would stay with a flouro or even mono when you have "super" lines in the same 4# test?  The "super" lines have no "memory" therefor they don't twist, tangle, or knot on you.  Just a thought anyway...
