I have been using P-line flouroclear for my bottom contact baits for several years. But recently have been braking off fish with it. I even respooled new line and had it happen on the last three trips.
So before my tourney I respooled everything with Senshi mono.

Good points:

Flouroclear lays really nice on the spool and is extremely sensitive.

Senshi is able to be used for all techniques. It lays nice on the reel especially after being stretched. Also had less stretch than flouroclear. Very abrasion resistant.

Bad points:

Flouoclear is not as tough as expected. Rocks absolutely destroy it.

Senshi is very floatable making fishing deep harder to get the bait to fall straight down on long casts.Not as sensitive but just a little.

Senshi all the way for me.

Senshi is great for someone who uses an all around rod often. I often topwaters, and bottom contact with the same rod when I am bank fishing. So Senshi gives me great sensitivity like fluro, it has less stretch than most mono and it floats.

Used Fluroclear a while ago and wasn't a fan.

I've always been a huge fan of Sunline Sniper FC, but I've been using the PLine Tactical fluorocarbon a good bit lately and I've been really impressed with it. It's got a slightly larger diameter when compared to Sniper, but it performs very well.

I tried fluoroclear once, it was literally the worse line I have ever fished, ever. Terrible wind knot issues, and it was constantly breaking at weird, random places. I think I only fished it two trips.
Maybe I had a bunk spool of it.

Fluoroclear is a hybrid lol.

It's mono coated with fluoro.

But still. I hear you.
