Title: What pound flouro
Post by: MossCreekMonster on Jan 26, 2015, 01:46 PM

What pound of Flouro are you guys using for leader material? Would it also stand up to pike?

my tipups are rigged with 10lb leaders and I got lucky the other day with a 10lb pike that cut the line at the hole but I got lucky enough to grab him before he got away if I switch to chasing pike I just cut off the 10lb and put on my quick strikes made from 30lb

Was that with 10lb flouoro or 10lb wire? Also wondering if putting glow beads
Would help at all above the hook.

I use 4 lb Seaguar Red Label with glow beads for walleye and perch.  I know its lite but I haven't last one yet do to the line.

Caught a nice eye today on 20 lb sea gaur.  Had it left over from striper fishing so that's what I used.  Plus there are many pike muskg that it should hold up to.  Its pretty tough for how small it is

I run 6 lb average eye I catch 15-low 20s.  Constantly have to fix leader as once it starts getting light I start getting chains.
