Braided mono is a line made from - braiding mono (which is not the same as furling)
It is used commonly for leader butts and for shooting lines, and for making loop connectors. Also extended bodies as previously mentioned. Maybe other uses that I am not aware of also. It comes is various strengths and colors. 35lb braided mono, for example, is braided from lighter strands of mono to get a composite total strength. Cortland and Gudebrod are two manufacturers.
You can also use it to join two sections of a broken flyline.
It casts pretty well as a shooting line but it does blow around a bit in the wind, its inherent stretch can impair long distance hook sets, and it can be rough on the hands.

He said the braided mono resists tangling, and that was an important attribute for casting demos.
Also, that he was starting to use the Frog Hair shooting line and that he liked it, but couldn't say how well it fished but would be finding out soon. He liked it well enough to recommend trying it.
