For those who use it do you just use them for a leader or do you fill your spool with Flouro?

Benifits/ Negatives?

I use floro on all my harnesses and leaders. Main benefit I have found is abrasion resistance, you can go longer without changing out your rigs.

Ther are so many varieties now that I don't think you can just lump them all under fluorocarbon. Some are stiff. some sink faster, some are decent on a spinnig reel and some are terrible. In general I prefer other lines on the reel and use fluorocarbon leader material in harnesses and as a terminal section. There have been several decent reviews in the walleye magazines lately.

I also use flouro on my crawler harnesses (15#) and as leaders (10#).

I agree with Larrys, I found that using the flouro leader material holds up better than just the regular flouro line for my trolling applications. The last walleye insider or In-Fisherman had an article explaining the differences between brands along with the abrasion resistance.
