    I have used 6x and 7x fluorocarbon tippet for about 9 years. I have no trouble floating a sz 16, 18, or 20 dry ( comparadun style) using floro.

    I personally think the main advantage of fluoro is abrasion resistance. I have a large spool of fluoro that I use for nymph fishing. But I use regular mono for dry fly fishing. You can use fluoro for dry fly fishing, but I don't think it has any real advantage and it does cost more.
