    I understand NYLON monofilament and FLUOROCARBON monofilament line, what are the co-poly lines you are referring to made of?

    Do Co-Poly lines have the same stretch and physical characteristics as floro?

    Co-Poly is short for Copolymer. It's basically different form of mono that blends two or more different nylon strands instead a single type. Both are Nylon fishing lines, just have different properties.

I was concerned that I was losing contact with my lure because of the “line float” on the braid. After reading your post, I loaded 2 rigs with floro and bought the line conditioner. I really like the feel with the floro, the line seems heavier causing it to sink more quickly and more directly to the target and I seem to stay in contact with my lure better.
    My catch rate is also up.
    Now the question: what brand of floro has the least tendency to coil? I use the line conditioner the night before each use and it is acceptable but I wonder if some lines are better than others.
    I prefer Seaguar Invisx, holds up well. Close 2nd for me is the BPS brand (used to be KVD brand) it made by Seaguar but is a little stiffer. If you want to empty your wallet Seaguar Tatsu is hands down the best but almost double the price.
    Please release me,let me go.
