Bk4 Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 What are your thoughts about this line? Like or dislike? How's the float/sinking rate? Quote
Super User Darren. Posted May 14, 2013 Super User Posted May 14, 2013 Have you done a search on Yo-Zuri Hybrid yet? Huge topic on the forums... Most everything to be said about the line has been said. But it is a good, popular line... I like it, not my main go-to (P-Line Floroclear), but a go-to right after P-Line... Won't sink like pure FC, but being a blended nylon + FC, it has a neutral buoyancy, I believe - roadwarrior can correct me on that. But it'll float until surface tension is broken. Holds knots very well. Abrasion resistance is good, and the stuff is very strong for it's rating. Quote
MichiganFishing1997 Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 I have it on my spinning set up to try, I like it so much that I spooled my other gear up with it to. Great overall line when it comes to things like manageability, strength, and abrasion resistance. I would highly recomend it. Quote
Bk4 Posted May 14, 2013 Author Posted May 14, 2013 Haha I didn't have time to check it out but now that I did thanks guys gonna go grab one to test it out. :] Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted May 14, 2013 Super User Posted May 14, 2013 Spinning tackle: #6 = 11.9 lb breaking strength Baitcasting gear: #12= 19.5 lb breaking strength Quote
dave Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 I caught a foot and a half (estimate) wide skate on 6# clear with a medium spinning rod. I had to purposely break off in order to move on. In open water, it was a beast. Quote
georgeyew Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 I thought I read some where that the Yo-Zuri #6 was about the same diameter as mono #8. Can someone confirm? Quote
Super User 00 mod Posted May 14, 2013 Super User Posted May 14, 2013 Yo-Zuri 6# has a diameter of .010 with a 11.9lb breaking strength. 8lb mono is - Berkley Trilene XT .012 Stren Original .011 Suffix elite .011 Seaguar Senshi .009 So yes it does have a little larger diameter, but it is excellent line Jeff BTW - Berkley Trilene XT 6# is .010 Stren Original 6# is .009 Suffix Elite 6# is .010 Seaguar Senshi 6# is .008 Not that much difference!

Super User Ratherbfishing Posted May 14, 2013 Super User Posted May 14, 2013 I do not think yo-zuri hybrid is quite as limp as, say, Trilene XL however it's strength (literal strength) far outweighs this deficiency. I've saved a fair number of lures ($$$) that would've broken off with a lesser line. Quote
