Yo-Zuri Fluoro/Nylon Hybrid Mono

 

Has anyone used this hybrid mono from Yo-Zuri which is a combination of PVDF (fluorocarbon) and nylon, and which is supposed to have most of the virtues of both fluoro and nylon, but fewer of the vices?!

I guess that these are claimed figures rather than ones from independent results. More importantly I'm interested in the wet-knot strength of it, and which knot to use, bearing in-mind the probs with 100% fluorocarbon monos

 

YoZuri say "HYBRID will retain 100% of its dry knot and tensile strength even after a full day of fishing. " ... WOW! ... so that's handy then .. just as long as you keep your line out of the water and rain etc :D
