Just like the afformentioned had stated. The mono cannot compare to braided. We can only compare apples to apples.
As far as mono lines goes, I have found the Blue to be far superior to many other types of line and very affordably priced. It does receive some stretch but it does take a lot of effort. I use that particular line when I know that I will be fishing in and around kelp beds in the ocean.
I have also found that line to be especially tough for catfishing. The catfish don't seem to notice the color. I wouldn't recommend it for trout though. Especially since the blue is the last color to dissappear under water.
Another nice thing about that line is that you can handle bigger fish with it and still use a smaller line than you would expect to use.[cool]
