Flourocarbon is stiffer , has less strech and a lower refractive index (less visible in water) than mono .
Google is your friend , try searching "fluorocarbon vs mono fishing line" lots of interesting info .

Only difference that matters is the price.
People seem to imagine that fish have sufficient brains to say to themselves "ooh look a bit of fishing line, better go carefully here". That would make fish almost as intelligent as us which they patently are not. |

ive never used flurocorbon and i still catch the odd fish. i think it only makes a difference if your targeting certain fish. a lot of mullet heads wouldnt dream of putting a bit of bait out without it. |
