Shock leader... conventional... if I'm throwing heavier stuff. Not usually for 2-3oz plugs.

3-4' leader (not past the tip) ... spinning.

I use 40-50lb mono on both. I never use a long (through the guides to the reel) leader for spinning, partly because I'm throwing 2-4 oz plugs and don't need it.

If I'm using conventional I may use one depending on what (how heavy a load) I'm throwing.

I just don't like the knot going through the guides on a spinning rig because of the way the load on the guides is compared to a conventional.

My knot for joining the mono leader to braid is either an overhand to uni or uni to uni.
