Fluorocarbon line
Major technological advancements have been made in this section of the line isle. These lines can be extremely expensive even going up to few Rands per meter for the premium brands. A property of the fluorocarbon is that it commonly has a much lower stretch element when compared to monofilament. The density of the line is much higher than that of monofilament meaning the line sinks much faster. It can also be noted that fluorocarbon line, although several technological advancements has been made is fairly sensitive to abrasion. Line transparency below the water can be very good and this definitely adds a positive element for this category. Fluorocarbon is often quite stiff and due to this line memory on thicker diameters need to be considered.
