Is anybody using flourocarbon to tie bottom rigs and c&c rigs? If so, what lb test are you using? I've always used mono, but was thinking about changing over.
Thanks!!

I use fluorocarbon when using braid with my hard water rigs. I use a # 12 swivel to attach the 4-6 lb fluorocarbon.
I sometimes use fluorocarbon when using braid in extremely clear water or very cold water fishing when the crappie are more wary than normal. I have found the uni-knot to be best for attaching the two together. I don't use it when fishing C&C or Kentucky rigs - just use mono then.
You'd probably get a lot more responses if you post this in the main forum.
Fluro is "SLICK", so double knot your ties and you will lose less fish! Experience talkin!
I use 12 lb for tying my rig's.
For me it would need to be some super clear water to use either mono or Fluorocarbon, but I don't use a double rig much except in summer when I will add a minnow hook up some from my jig. Fishing spring I long line so no need for a double drop and I tie my braid straight to the jig unless I am using one of my little Quick clips.
