I'm still trying to find

Mon, 2008-07-28 20:26

I'm still trying to find something decent in 80lb that isnt over the top in price, the best so far has been jinkai plus (red label)  but still not overly excited with it.

For the lighter

Mon, 2008-07-28 21:33

For the lighter flourocarbons been using Nitlon DFC and am very happy with it. Going up to 20 or 40 lb have used both Seaguar and Sufix Invisiline, and again, both are top quality in my book but both approach the "dollar a metre" mark.

Mate of mine has been using Ande FC and swears by it when he can find it....can get a 50 yard spool of 40 lb for around $18-$20 from some of the overseas online tackle shops.

Cajun leader is workin great

Tue, 2008-07-29 16:49

Cajun leader is workin great for me, Its easy to tie, knots hold well and its pretty cheap. I got a 50yard spool of 40lb for 15$ at my local tackle shop, not had a problem with it.. might buy some 60lb too
