agreed with the pp and albright. i use 50-65 lb flouro. be carefull if you use a leader longer then your scope when casting, the knot can weaken after going through the guides repeated times....and it sucks to lose a cow due to a knot failure

also, when fishing eels/sluggos, there can be a lot of line twist so a barrel connection can be very advantagous.
