Default Another Tip

I generally start with 40# flouro leaders and go lighter or heavier form there. For length, I'll pull a length of leader with arms straight apart (about 5ft). Some days it's 1 pull, others it's 2. The fish will tell you what they want.

If you're lucky enough and can get away with 50lb or 60lb leader, you'll land a lot more of the stud mangroves. They're almost impossible to stop with less than 40.
