How hard is it to tie knots with the 40-60lb line?
I use fluorocarbon leaders for everything i fish for. Berlkey Vanish is the brand i tie up. i use small treble hooks and use a palomar knot only. the heaviest weight test i use in the winter is 30#. most of my pike rigs are 20#. walleye rigs get 10-14# test. perch get 6-8# test. .open water, baitcasting for pike and musky i go as high as 125# test using a big game cable knot and crimp above the knot. .good luck
Do you tie your hook right to the flouro, or do you use a swivel?
so the heavier stuff coils bad? you can't straighten it like you do a tippet/leader for flyfishing?
