Fluorocarbon is denser

Walleye anglers quickly realize that a fluorocarbon leader is nothing like monofilament. Although it may look similar on a spool, it's make up is much different.
Fluorocarbon is denser than monofilament; has less stretch; and obtains a near suspending property in the water, versus floating. This permits baits to be more easily located in different parts of the water column. And mere inches matter when it comes to catching fickle fish.
This means a crawler, leech or minnow fished on a live-bait rig can be fished with more precision.
