How many people use a line conditioner like Gardner fluoro plus , is it worth it ? does it make much difference?

I tried it on my baitcasting rods with fluo a couple of years ago, didn't notice any difference. Would not recommend.

I use the Gardner one buddy defiantly helps keep the line more supple. Distance I haven't noticed a massive increase but can only imagine it helps as the line feels a lot more lubricated.

That's on mono.

I've used krystons greesed lightning for years. Not sure it adds any distance but helps keep line lubricated and supple. Also there is notably less noise on the cast .

I've used Kryston Greased Lightning and it keeps the line clean for a couple of trips, stop the waterborne particles sticking to it.

It can also slow down mono from sinking.

I have not really noticed any difference in casting, although unless I really need to I'm not casting long distances at the moment.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
