Roadwarrior I know you use Ultra Soft exclusively if I'm right. I was wondering how the stretch compares to mono or flourocarbon. If I had to guess I would say somewhere in between, but I wasn't sure. Thanks

Welcome aboard!

The stretch is nominal, I don't notice it at all.

Yozuri Hybrid Ultra Soft is remarkable line.

I use it on spinning gear (6lb) and can honestly say I've never lost a fish

to line or knot failure.  Low memory, very high diameter to strength ratio and I've never noticed enough stretch to effect fishing.

Can be hard to find (Cabela's is best) and is a little pricey compared to some but it lasts forever.

If you're looking for a good all-around line you really can't go wrong with it.

I love the ultra soft and use it for all my spinning gear applications and most bait caster applications. As far as the stretch, it seems caparatible to trilene xt when new but after a little use the stretch seems to be less than any mono I've ever used and there is little or no memory. It's tougher than XT and more managable then XL.  Good Luck !

 I put 12 lb. on my Citica and it casts great and very little or no memory. Have to use it more to have opinion on strength...

BTW Probably shouldn't say "no memory". None compared to anything I've used before ;)

If I can find it I will try it this year on a spinning rig.  I'll be comparing to XT so it shouldn't have a problem in the memory dept.  But, according to RW he uses 6lb YZ on his spinning rigs and I'm really not having much trouble with 6lb XT on mine as it is.  It is when I've tried 10 lb on spinning reels where I've had problems with XT.

I have been using 4# and 6# Ultra Soft on all my spinning rigs.  I talked to the reps at Yo Zuri and they recommended 4# for lighter fishing (i.e trout) and 6# for most bass applications.  I have been quite happy with it over the past year.  I spray some line conditioner on as well and the line has little to no memory.

I love the 6# on my spinning rig. It is literally the best line I've tried.
