I use 30Lb FIRELINE and a 5-6 ft (yeah that's right 5-6ft) 50-60lb leader tied w/a swivel. I get VERY few breaks on the mainline and I fish boneyards almost exclusively. You get used to tossing a long tail pretty quickly. I tried using a line-line knot with a spinner and it just don't work. after a few casts it pops on a guide.
