Actually, the newer fluoro is just as easy to tie knots and they hold just as well...BECAUSE it is not stiffer anymore.
Fluorocarbon has come a long way.
It might not be invisible under water, but light has no effect on it as other monos therefore it will be less visible.
It does sink faster than nylon, that is true, but would you prefer a leader lying on top of the water casting a shadow or glinting the sunlight occasionally, or would you prefer a leader that light does not reflect off of and it rides in the film so no shadow.
For me, I have all the confidence in the world with Fluorocarbon and confidence is 99% to being a successful fisher.
