Does FloroClear and similar hybrid line float?

Post by jazzwannabe »

I know 100% flouro sinks, and mono floats. How about the hybrids and copolymers? I'm looking for one all-around line that I can use for anything finesse to topwater plugs, with the sensitivity/strength advantage of flourocarbon, but the bouyancy of mono.

I use YoZuri hybrid for everything and it works great.

I was told most mono lines are actually some type of copolomer. Dude at the shop said there were only a couple true mono lines anymore. But he was high, so who knows. I use pline xxt, McCoy, yo zuri hybrid, berkley big game, and berkley xl for top water. It all works good for me. That yo zuri hybrid is cheap and will suprise you.

Trilene Big Game Green all the way, top or bottom.it just works for me. We'll be giving a bunch of it away at our Oct 18th tournament here at Don Pedro.

I've been under the impression the hybrid lines sink, but I may not be doing enough topwater to know for sure.

No mono or single strand line floats (Nylon, copolymer or fc). The density of nylon is slightly higher then h2o. The surface tension of water will suspend it momentary, but mono sinks.
