Ditto on this. I use braid and then fluoro for leader. Fluoro is definitely tough stuff. I used to not believe line that thin and in a low lb/test would work as a good leader material. Proved me wrong. I only revert to mono for leader when I want more stretch.

And as Dan pointed out, Seaguar is really tough stuff. You get what you pay for.
