Fluorocarbon Fishing Line Light Refraction Facts

Did you know that fluorocarbon line is nearly invisible under water? We bet you did, but Sunline has the science to prove their line is even more  invisible and that invisibility can  make baits look more lifelike in high pressure situations or in clear water.
Here is a fact that you may not be aware of:
  • Water refraction rate: 1.33
  • Nylon refraction rate: 1.53
  • Fluorocarbon refraction rate: 1.42
Fluorocarbon has the best refraction rate but can be enhanced by colorization and Sunline has made colorization of fluorocarbon a science. It is tough to do with fluoro’s  but the light gray coloring that they use even makes it more invisible.
