Generally, mono has great knot strength Buoyancy Some mono lines float or sink slower than fluorocarbon, which can be beneficial when using topwater lures or baits for species like striped bass, trout and game species Abrasion resistance: Mono has outstanding resistance to rubbing on rough shark skin and hard structure like reef, pier pilings or rocks Cons of using mono for surf fishing Visibility: Monofilament line can be highly visible underwater in brighter and solid shades, potentially spooking wary fish in clear water conditions even in clear versions compared to fluorocarbon lines Stretch: They have more stretch compared to other lines, which can result in reduced sensitivity when detecting subtle bites from smaller fish and at long distances Thickness: Mono, per pound of breaking strain, is far thicker than braid main line, meaning you'll fit less on the spool and you'll have to use a bigger sinker Memory: Mono line often has what's called "memory", which means the line retains the shape of the spool it was stored on to some degree when laid out loose
