i NEVER use wire, even if the blues are around. it was always burned into my head that bass are wire shy. i have never seen any proof of it, though.

on a side note, if you ever get a chance to read Jerry Sylvester's book "saltwater fishing is easy", he spoke of ALWAYS using a small piano wire leader. he used a "japanese feather" lure with a shot of wire leader to catch, among many other trophy bass, a 57# pig from the RI surf.
