I play both, and enjoy both games equally. In my experience, there are more fish at FL because it costs less for them to chase. In turn, you will get sucked out on a lot more. The variance at anything under $.50BB can be truly sickening due to the extremely loose-passive play. It gets a tad better as you move up, but obviously the players get a little better and a bit more aggressive.
You need to come to a casino. Seriously. At Commerce, you can get all the way up to $9/$18 limit and find lots of loose-passives and loose-aggressives. Just about anywhere, you can get up to $4/$8 and find plenty of them. Much better than playing $0.25/$0.50 on the internet.

Yes, there's plenty of variance, but it's a very beatable game.
