Truthfully, the newer P-Line Fluorocarbon is not really bad for spooling.
IF you are more comfortable with the Fluoroclear I think you would be fine
using that plus a pure fluoro leader. I personally use a double Surgeons
knot to attach all my leaders to the main line, and haven't ever had a
problem with slippage. That knot is awesome!

Good luck,

Chris

CR,

Bob is right on with the red hook. This is what I switch to in clear
water.
Also black nickel works good. Also I would switch from lo-vis green
mono to
straight P-Line Fluorocarbon or Seaguar Carbon Pro. These steps have
improved my success in clear water, so I can personally vouch for it.

I'm seriously thinking about trying the P-Line Fluoro. Why the
straight P-Line and not the coated? I thought I heard somewhere that
the pure fluoro line was stiff and harder to cast on a spinning reel
than the coated kind. I'd hate to lose too much casting distance since
I'm using light lures.
