Fluorocarbon leader of choice
Which brand of fluorocarbon leader do you prefer. I have always used Berkley Vanish but Bass Pro where I live doesn't have that, they have Seugar (and, of course, there own brand). I've used them both and have always had better success with Vanish. Maybe I was just holding my mouth right those days.

When I worked @ bass pro we found out that the bass pro fluro is made in the same factory as Seagar.
That is what I use...

I bought a 600 yard spool of green 40lb Yozuri Hybrid line and use it for Spanish leaders on Bubbles and Gotcha's and it seems to do as well as the expensive 100% flouro leaders. Been using it for 4 years.

I've always used Seaguar fluorocarbon line. I'm not sure that it matters what brand you use.

There's an extra "U" (more than seem necessary, to me) in both "SEAGUAR" and "FLUOROCARBON", but it makes it easy to remember how to spell them.
SEAGUAR - Always the best
