What is Double Structure Technology Fluorocarbon Fishing Line - From the Guys that Invented It
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 вер 2024
- From my conversation with Brian at Seaguar I knew the Tatsu line was different, but I didn't know what Double Structure Technology is, and I sure didn't know that Seaguar is the only company that makes line this way, some cool stuff. We also Itake apart some of the myths about fluorocarbon fishing lines.

Probably the most informative video on fluorocarbon line! I got a LOT from listening to Brian. Great questions Ken. Rick U. (Wisconsin)
Thank you, you always cover topics with information and ask questions that help us to understand more about the topics and products we use. PS looking forward to seeing more about the tracking study on Toledo
Me too!
Great pair of videos. Just put Tatsu 10Lb on a spinning real this spring and really like it so far. I also have been using 30Lb Blue Label leader for northern pike for the last 5 or 6 years now. You’ll never find a steel leader on my pike gear again.
So the heavy Blue works?
@@KenSmithFishing yeah, it’s great. Lots of advantages over steel. 1) although it’s stiff it’s no where near as stiff as steel so you get better action on your bait. 2) great for clear water where the pike are more apt to be leader shy. 3) you can use as long a leader as you want because using the FG or Albright knot that come through the guides you can real your bait in as close as you want with no worries about the swivel on the leader crashing into the eye at the tip of your rod. I’ve had to change or retie after a fish, but I’ve never gotten bitten off. Like I said I’ll never go back.
Awesome stuff. Should do this with a monofilament manufacturer as well for those of us who don’t use flouro.
Hhhmmmm
Just like the 1st segment, this was very in-depth and very clear as to the brand we need to use!!! I have been using invited for some time and I love it.
So much more castable than Red Label and softer, with less memory, and yet strong enough to flip and pitch with. Very good job Ke
Been my go to as well
Love the information. Exclusively use seaguar flouro
love floro line, I use it 95% of the time, I would love one that floats or find a good monofilament without the 30% stretch LOL
Joe that’s awesome, I asked the same question (as apparently does all their pro staff). Don’t think it’s even on the horizon
SENSITIVITY & STRETCH?
What is the comparison of Sensitivity between each Seaguar fluorocarbon brand?
How does sensitivity relate to stiffness with fluorocarbon lines?
What is the comparison of Stretch between each Seaguar fluorocarbon brand?
I'll believe that braid has the most sensitivity, but only on a tight line! Fluorocarbon has some sensitivity on a slightly slack line.
Sensitivity helps with bottom-contact fishing!
Low-Stretch helps with hooksets on long casts!
Did I miss these topics?
Nope I’ll add to the follow up list, wondering if there is even a way (scientifically) to measure sensitivity
I truly enjoy all of your videos ,very in depth and detailed for dummies like me ,so thank you MR KEN SMITH
You bet
Thank you @kensmithfishing for another informative video.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for bringing Brian on...... Learned a lot more about the composition and developement of fluro...... I live and fish up north.... Is it me, or do you note that flouro seems to get stiff and brittle in cold conditions.....??? I notice right after ice-out, jerkbait fishing, that my 10-12lb flouro is stiff as cable...... and the heavier lines such as 20lbs or worse.... Your thoughts...???
I think certainly they seem stiffer when it’s cold (as do I!). But I’ve not experienced it making it unfishable and down here we fish football jigs a ton in Jan and February on 20
Guess Im not the norm with Tatsu..Ive been using invizx for years and love it. Last year had some money saved up and took the plunge and ordered a 1000 yd spool from Tacklewarehouse...Ive never snapped off more with a line in my 30+ years of bass fishing!!??
That’s crazy, I’ve not lost a Fish tatsu nor had line break when pulling on something where you think “that broke too easy”
@@KenSmithFishing it was a spool of 10lb that I primarily use for cranking. Wont buy again because of it. Going back to "Invizx"
Awesome job, Ken. I really enjoy your informative videos.
Thanks JP!
I asked this on the first video, but I will ask again to make sure you get it. Is the difference between different price levels the formulation of the fluorocarbon? Thanks, as with all of your videos, very educational.
James it is
Thank you so much for this great video! I really found value in this
Thanks Werner!
Cant say enough about how good tatsu is. I use 6lb on all my spinning setups and people think I am crazy for using such a light line, however I cant remember the last time a fish has broken me off.
All about the knot on that small diameter stuff
@@KenSmithFishing very good point. I have one knot that has worked great for me.
Great interview!
Thanks Bob
Good job again Ken, I would like to know what connection knot Seaguar thinks is best for braid to fluro. I use Seaguar, and Sunline for different things and like both. I think day in, day out Invisx is hard to beat for most things.
On the follow up list
Great interview
Thx
can you do a video on there braid
I can
Great video
Is there a big difference in shock resistance between the lines? Sometimes that's more important than abrasion resistance.
I had gotten away from Seaguar about 18 months ago because I had a couple of spools of Red Label that were very brittle and snapped way too easily. I will say that hearing his take on the different lines and their process is making me want to switch back, but I've become line-shy, pun intended. I'm wondering if there's a way to know whether or not that was a fluke and their QC is still good?
I’ll ask, I do wish there was a “made on” date, always wonder how long it’s been sitting on the shelf
Fluorocarbon is only affected by physical stress. So is the line and lure conditioner just sitting on the line? I always thought it had some kind of chemical affect on the line.
Brent from what Brian says I don’t think so, but great follow up question
Great info. I’m definitely going to jump up to abraizX. The kids will jump on to the new Bassix( hope that’s right ) when I can get a hold of it. Things tend to take some time to get to SA. Time for another Tackle warehouse order. 😂
Make sure and use this link in the video description below!
Ton of great information, but probably a bit more than this old brain can remember a few weeks down the road. It probably exists but I’ll ask anyway, is there a chart that presents this same information somewhere? Particularly things like what/why a particular line was developed for. If a visual reference exists could you please provide a link to it? Thanks, great video.
I’ll look into it
Do I really have to stretch the line on 6-8 rods every day to combat line memory, or is there another way?
Alfredo I never stretch my fluoro, with Invizix if it coils up its probably been on there too long
Use a conditioner spray from cabellas
What’s the best knot in his opinion?
It’s on the follow up list
Seaguar Catspoo.
These companies are lying to sell this line. Mono is and always has been better.
You would have to have more money than sense to buy that tatsu
stuffs not cheap
