Ive been using 50lb ande big game leader material, tying my own, 3 to 4 foot lengths.

I had a fish (23lbs) hit my plug then submarine to the bottom, i successfully landed the fish but the leader was severely chaffed and ready to break, im thinking if that fish had been much bigger i would have lost it.

im thinking of going up to 60, a friend throws 80lb when he jigs.

Just curious what everyone else is using or a tip that might help.
I use 10 feet of 40lb Big game (green) tied to braid
