I use 45# lead line,penn 113 reels, and penn 7' powersticks. This was the heaviest lead line available at the time, next time I will try 60#. I have found that the life of this line is fairly short, I cut off two colors after one season and replace the line after two. The type and length of leader you use at the end of your lead line is much more important than the lead line.

good luck
