My leaders are either 50# or 80# test mono no longer than 30 inches. When jigging I feel the lead-heads bumping the bottom especially when trolling the rips. To add insult to injury, last weekend I was "cut%$%$%$%$ twice by blues. What to do now - use a wire leader and scare away the bass? If it was easy everyone would do it (-:
