[QUOTE="megalomaniac, post: 5410944, member: 2805"] I wish someone could definitively tell me a flouro leader makes no difference. inshore and nearshore fishing, all my reels are spooled with 17lb braid over 20lb mono backing, then 15lb flouro leader on my 2500 series reels for specks and 20lb flouro leader on my 3000 series reels for reds. Personally, I FEEL I get more strikes than my fishing partners who use straight braid without a leader, but I'm not sure if it really makes a difference. Without a leader, one less knot to potentially fail, although I don't have trouble with losing fish (unless I get hit with by a Spanish, ladyfish, or shark who just cut thru the leader). As far as feeling the bites... braid with a flour leader is MUCH more sensitive than straight mono for sure to me. [/QUOTE]
