I've never used it, mostly 'cause I've always used mono.

However, I bought some flouro leader this year to try out for light tackle applications. I'm also going to give braid a try.

Hey, last year I decided to try circle hooks and while the jury is still out on them (I still gut hooked a few), I missed very few fish on eels.

I'm gonna stick with mono/mono leader for heavy duty eeling.
