Hey guys, I quit using fluorocarbon after doing some pull tests. Have you ever wondered why fluorocarbon is IGFA recognized? This is what the manufactures don’t want you to know.

10# Seguar .0115, Line broke at 11# 3 oz average for 5 tests.

10# Vanish .0105, Line broke at 9# 13 oz average for 6 tests.

12# Vanish .011, Line broke at 11# 1oz average for 4 tests.

17# Vanish .015, Line broke at 13# 4 oz average for 4 tests.

12# Maxima .015, Line broke at 19# 5oz average for 4 tests

10# Bass Pro Shop Excel .012, Line broke at 16# average for 5 tests.

17# Spiderline Super Mono .016, Line broke at 26# for 1 test.

I have read articles that state fluorocarbon allows you to up size your line one size over mono. Why do that when the lighter size mono is stronger than the heavier size fluorocarbon.
