Steve,

Not sure what you use but any opinion on leader material (Fluorocarbon vs wire) for fish on Eagle?

typically we use mostly 80-120# 22-24" complete leaders by stealth or hand tied directly to mainline 30" 80# in floro. if trolling and bouncing bottom/rocks braided bronzed wire 90# 40-48".

I use 80lb Seaguar. I do it how Steve showed me 10 years ago. My friends now use the same stuff. Never had an issue or breakoff.

Thanks Dan I use the Seaguar 90# and have never had a problem. I have big confidence in using it. However, I have seen some fish on Eagle that look like they could break chain links! Thanks again!
