Fishing Line Abrasion Test: Mono vs. Braid vs. Fluoro (Shocking Results)
Переглядів 4,4 тис.4 роки тому
This mono vs braid vs fluoro line abrasion strength test was done so that we could see which fishing line can hold up to rubbing against rough surfaces the best. To perform these tests we submerged all lines underwater for several hours. We built a simple rig out of wood that allowed us to suspend these lines with 5 lb. weights attached so we could subject them to equal abrasion. Each test susp...

    Not to be confused with the "doubled uni," which is a terminal uni made with a loop instead of a tag-end. (And if you reverse the uni direction, it becomes the berkley knot.)

  • @timyogerst4349

    Double-wrap the eye of your lure and then put a Uni on and you'll make it stronger than the Palomar. (Aka Fish-n-fool knot)

  • @somefishinghappening4735
    @somefishinghappening4735 2 роки тому

    Why did you only wrap the line 4 times, I thought you said 6 to 7 wraps, looked like you needed a longer tag. When joining braid to flora or mono you should always trim the tag as close to the knot as possible. The double uni is a large knot for joining line. I would recommend using an Albright or a FG knot when joining line, these are much smaller knots and they move through the eyes on the rod much more easily.

    Hey man! Can you use braided line for any type of lure just for the main line? If so what pound test?

    • @johnbaltes3015
      @johnbaltes3015 4 роки тому

      Raul, braiud can be excellent main line, especially when you need sensitivity and hard hooksets. Here's an article on the subject: usangler.com/best-braided-fishing-line/ If you run braid with a mono leader, you'll also want to mae sure you're tying the right knot: usangler.com/bass-fishing-knots/ The test depends on your application and the species you're after. As thin as 20-pound braid is, I probably wouldn't run lower test, but I'd run more than that for bigger fish (and definitely a mono shock leader). Tell me what species you're after and I can point in you in the right direction.

    • @raulitog
      @raulitog 4 роки тому

      John Baltes I got for bass and I want to use any lure I can use suck as crankbaits, chatterbaits, Texas rig or just plastic, spinnerbaits, topwater etc! What size braid would be for main line and no leader? Because I wanna save money too and can I use like 17 pd flouro for leader if I will use a leader?

    • @johnbaltes3015
      @johnbaltes3015 4 роки тому

      Raul, I use braided main line for Texas rigged plastics, large spinner baits, chatterbaits, and anything with a single hook. Unless the water is very clear, a leader SHOULDN'T matter, but I'd use one anyway since braid is just so visible underwater. For topwater and crankbaits, I recommend mono. You want a bit of give for the hookset with treble hooks--too firm and you lose some fish by pulling the treble loose. You can fish crankbaits and topwater with braid, but I'd loosen the drag a bit and be hesistate a split second when setting the hook. As far as tests, I'd run 20-pound braid on spinning gear (the diameter is equivalent to 6-pound mono) and 20- to 50-pound braid on casting gear. That test increase is there to provide greater knot strength. And yes, 17-pound fluoro leader should be just fine for largemouth, though with smaller diameter braid you'll need to be careful about the knot you use to connect your main line to your leader.

  • @johnnorris1227
    @johnnorris1227 4 роки тому

    Pretty much what I had already known. Couple things though the benefits of using fluorocarbon over mono aren't really in abrasion resistance as they are pretty much the same but more so with visibility under water. With fluoro you get a line or leader material that's virtually invisible under water which can play a big factor in very clear water or around certain species that are notoriously leader shy. So yes your right in most cases mono is just as good but there are a few exceptions.

    • @johnbaltes3015
      @johnbaltes3015 4 роки тому

      John, the science is still out on whether fluorocarbon really is less visible underwater. While it has a refractive inex that's closer to water than nylon monofilament, it's unclear whether that really means anything in the real world. What we know about fluorocarbon leader is that it's a little more sensitive than mono, less plastic, exibits lower knot strength, and is much more expensive.
