The difference between his running line and leader is that the leader is fluorocarbon, while the running line is nylon.

Fluorocarbon has a light refraction index very close to that of water, so it's slightly less visible underwater. It also tends to have higher breaking strength for its diameter, is more resistant to abrasion, is stiffer, and sinks more readily. It's also quite a bit more expensive.
