    I carry both.
    I prefer the lightest leader that will suffice under the circumstances, feeling it will get more bites and have a little batter action with the lure.
    Maybe that's why I get more bites on 30# (or even 20# in the case of using a Speck Rig).
    But I use 40# if I "have to".
    Can't afford to be loosing lures all day ;-)

    Even 40# gets cut off occasionally and I constantly check it for bad cuts and NEVER hesitate to retie.
    But I do tend to take more 'chances' with an 'old' lure seeing it is nearing the end of its usefulness.

    Hope that answers your question.
