Don't use an improved clinch in anything over 30# mono. It's very difficult to snug the knot up tight without some extra help, like basswipe's screw eye. Use a simple clinch knot. 4 turns for 40, three for 50. Better to have fewer turns and tight loops than more turns and slippage.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.

For what it is worth I like the 50lb Momoi. Nothing too fancy, but it works for me.

Annother vote for the Ande leader material..it comes in a handy spool. Slobber up the knots good and they will tie a whole lot easier.
