What's the difference in fishing line? You will find basically three kinds of fishing line, monofilament, fluorocarbon, and braided. However, with all of this new technology, they are developing new lines that are harder to classify. But for the greater degree, they fall in one of these three categories. And each type of line has its own characteristics. Knowing these traits will help you choose the best line.

Monofilament-- This line is softer than the other two, which makes it more manageable. It will retain water that makes it more likely to float. Mono line is not too durable. So, in case your fishing around lots of cover or anything that could be rubbing your line, mono is probably not the best choice. It does come in different colors and mono is harder to determine in the water than braided line. Mono has a lot of stretch to it. Then when the fish strikes, the road will absorb a few of the strike, there will be a little delay before you decide to fill the fish. This can help when it comes to setting the hook. Many people set the hook to soon and jerk the lure right out of the fishes mouth. The mono line provides the fish just a little bit longer to swallow your bait. Mono works great for finesse baits and crankbaits.

Fishing Lures

Fluorocarbon-- Fluorocarbon has what they call " refractive index " the same thing that water has. This will make fluro virtually invisible in the water. So that you can already see the advantages if you are fishing in clear water. However, fluro is stiffer compared to other two which makes it we have them. This is known as memory. Fluro is more durable than mono, which makes it more suitable for fishing around cover. Fluro has little stretch, so you can have the fish strike better than you can with mono line. This means that you will have a quicker hook set so be patient. Fluro doesn't retain water therefore it does sink. Fluro is stronger than mono line. For 14 pound test line of each and use the equivalent pressure, the mono line will break prior to the fluro does.

Braided-- This line has zero stretch. This means, out of all three lines, it's the most sensitive. You'll have a extremely fast hook set with this particular line. It is also the best line out of all three. Braided line does not retain water, so it does sink. Despite to be the strongest line, it does not have good knot strength-- something to consider. The largest draw-back on braided lines are its visibility. However, if your fishing in stained water or murky water you ought to be alright.

My favorite line is Berkley TriMax. Her same stretch characteristics of the mono, and has the durability from the fluro. It's almost like a hybrid line.
