- I'm sure you always have heard that braided line is the most sensitive on the market. Well, it is in some cases but not in some. I will show you through a test that you will see with your own eyes how braid in some cases is the worst thing you can use. I will also explain when to use fluorocarbon. depending on whether you are fishing for freshwater bass or Saltwater fishing!
If you really think you can feel the vibration of a fish tapping a lure, on completely slack line, fluoro or otherwise, I have a bridge to nowhere I would like to sell you.
I’m not sure what’s more impressive .. the line test or managing to convince your good wife to write a book so you can use it to perform your line test 🤣🤣🤣!!! Brilliant brilliant fact that you brought to light . Thank you 👍🏻
The day you stop learning, is the day you stop being successful in whatever you do....AWESOME video
This is something I've been telling people for a long time, especially as it relates to worm fishing and dropping a bait on semi-slack line. Another misconception about line is that fluorocarbon is more sensitive than mono because it has less stretch. The reason braid is more sensitive than both fluorocarbon or mono IS because of less stretch, the reason fluorocarbon is more sensitive (not to the same degree braid is over the other line types) is because it is denser. That's why it sinks and the others don't. Many fluorocarbons have as much or in some cases more stretch than mono. As a general rule lines that are limper and more manageable have more stretch. The moral of all of this is you have to balance your tackle (rods, lines, hooks, hooksets, and drag settings) to; detect a bite, set the hook, and land fish efficiently.
I dont fish to feel the fish. I fish to catch the fish. Thats why i choose braid for all my fishing. Fluorocarbon snaps too easy
Your fluo war not resting on the edge of the clay plate like the braid, was not as slack...braid had much more in the water, braid was still, fluo was already shaking all over... Test needs to be redone fairly. Now as the fluo is a solid body, it will carry vibration better than a woven braid, basic physics, under tension, braid probably has the edge.\
The advantage of braid isn’t just about sensitivity, to me more about greater line capacity, casting distance, abrasion resistance, and floating ability in many scenarios. When fishing any type of covers I’d never use straight fluorocarbon cuz they’re so easy to snap. I’d rather miss a fish than losing 50 yards of fluorocarbon line. Also, when talking about slack line sensitivity, it depends on how much slack there is, scientifically/physically speaking I think any line will lose sensitivity 100% if there’s enough slack. So the sensitivity advantage of fluorocarbon on a slack line is only present when the slack is minimal, and it’s probably only sensible with a $500+ rod, which is out of the budge for most. Here in Michigan when fishing sub 50 degrees which is very common, half an hour into fishing your hands are cold and numb af, and a $1000 rod will feel the same as something from Walmart...
I think the test should be done the other way around, your test is line from air to water but the fish bites from water and u hold the line in air, lots of things to be consider if you do it the other way around does the braid cuts in water better than floro and if does that motion from the bite from the fish mouth to your hand will be travel faster in braid than floro in theory ur line will never be slack in water not unless its floating and no weight on other side on the air side is only from the tip of ur rod to the water does it makes difference ? and by how much? the test should have been done the other way around in my opinion.
Braid has no memory the floro has memory and that’s why it jumped
Good video!
I ordered this to net the algae in a large pond in our backyard.
Great info. I lean toward fluoro more than braid for everything, and I think you gave me the answer as to why. Always felt like could feel more on fluoro. Great stuff.
Thank you David that was the best video I've seen all week on any channel. I will be totally rethinking my game plan now.
Very informative. That's why I love your channel David, you make us think outside the box. That's where I like to be. I continue to see the time and thought you put into your game and it shows with your success. Thanks
That puts a totally new teist on how to perceive sensitivity with line types. Awesome info !!
Great video keep them coming, I'm just now learning how to use a baitcaster I've fished with a spinning reel most of my life but my point is I'm still learning every time I get out on the water to improve my fishing and your video was very great on which to use especially on my baitcasters. Thanks for this video. Tight lines always
Love this bit of knowledge. Completely changes how I will be setting up some of my spinning gear for next year. Thanks David.
This video is 3 years old at this point but after watching I feel that I need to chime in for whatever my experience is worth to anyone reading these comments.
This is why your growing very good information.
Awesome Video man! Thanks for dropping the knowledge. Makes me rethink most of my rigs and what line I have on them.
