Default Fluorocarbon Leader / Tippet Material

I have 2.5#, 3#, and 4# spools of Duel (Japanese) 100% fluorocarbon lines
for sale. These are copolymer lines, with a fluorocarbon core, and a
fluorocarbon shell. The sensitivity is awesome, and they tend to sink faster
than regular leaders. The spool has 110 yards of soft line, not 25 yards
like most of the rigid lines available in the US. You can view this line on
Ebay, or I will sell it directly for 11.00 including shipping. You can pay
with paypal for the security if you would like.Please let me know if you are
interested.


Thanks,

Hi Schreecher,

I have never heard of that brand, but we are sell a little more FC every
year.

They complain that it does not break down in the eco system and will be
there forever but I don't think fly fishers are leaving "miles" of it in the
water ways like those spin fishers?

Personally, I like it because it does not go bad and I can keep it in my
vest for years.

You (special people here) don't ever need to buy any FC to catch fish, so
don't get weird on me now.

My wife just brought me a cup of good coffee. Only in
America.............................

Have you ever heard of p-line flouroclear? The local tackle shop has it
on spool and sells it for 3 cents a yard. Preety darn good deal. 75
cents for 25 yards...

Many people I know use both nylon and F-carb line for tippet. If you need
250 yds of 4# f-carb as tippet, you can probably save a lot of money. I
have no idea if line and tippet are made the same way.

Yes, I have used it, with success. anmd this would be nearly the same cost
when you combine the shipping for 2 spools. This is a higher grade of line
that the p-line.
