I use fluoro on almost everything except topwater. Several of your fluoro breakage issues comes from the knot. If you crease the line or cinch a knot down dry it will severely weaken the line. The pros for me on fluoro is that it transmitts vibration on a slack line like after you pop a jig and have slack and/or wind blowing your line you can still feel the hit. Fluoro also last for a very long time on your reel. I use the higher end sunline and toray fluoro. To me fluoro is a strong example of "you get what you pay for"
