About the only Flouro I haven't tried is Tatsu. I have more than a little disdain for that stuff and casting both on Baitcasters and Spinning Reels. I soaked the stuff literally in KVD and applied it over and again through out the day. I have stretched from my mailbox down the street. But almost certainly some time through the day it will ball up like a kitten in a yarn ball! It will just jump off the spinning reel like a coil spring! Now I do use the heck out of it as a leader on my Shakey heads and Drop Shots even on the finesse jigs. The main line is almost exclusively Power Pro Braid. I do have a couple of reels rigged with mono for topwater and sometimes for a spinnerbait to give the fish a chance to turn into the hook before I bring it home.

Flouro is going to be a little more stiff than mono, it's just the nature of the beast. But with line conditioner and some care on your part it should be managable.

Last weekend, I had a reel with me that has had the same Seaguar InvisX on it for two full seasons. It finally broke in a backlash on me last weekend, but it was still limp and very manageable. If that's what you're going with, you will be pleased.
