Mono vs Fluoro Leaders

Leader refers to a length of line connected between a mainline and hook/lure that offers more protection against structure, fish, and anything else that line may come into contact with, and helps to control fish during the endgame of a fight.

There are two main types of leader used in New Zealand – monofilament (mono) and fluorocarbon (fluoro). But how do you know which one to buy? The decision between these two options depends on the gear you are using, your fishing style, and the sort of fish you are trying to catch.
