RangerGuy Posted November 14, 2012 Report Posted November 14, 2012 What size do you prefer as a fluorocarbon leader from your mainline when trolling cranks? Is #10 test fluorocarbon leader heavy enough for the deep diving cranks?
BucktownAngler Posted November 14, 2012 Report Posted November 14, 2012 i used 15lb seaguar leader material (abrasion resistant) caught one 8lber and the line was beat up and frayed pretty good.
myot Posted November 14, 2012 Report Posted November 14, 2012 10lbs is standard for me and I dont think I've ever broke one off Dan
Guest ---- Posted November 14, 2012 Report Posted November 14, 2012 I've been running 15lb seaguar blue label. Have yet to break off in Quinte in 7 years.
fishindevil Posted November 15, 2012 Report Posted November 15, 2012 I as well will use 15lb in quinte but usually will go 10lb anywhere else !!!!
fishindevil Posted November 15, 2012 Report Posted November 15, 2012 And I also use 10lb floro for lakers too but for quinte cause I troll and have lots and lots of line out I will bump it too 15lb to handle the additional stretch and of course the big eyes too
mike rousseau Posted November 15, 2012 Report Posted November 15, 2012 I use 12lb mono and they don't seem to mind any...
superdad Posted November 15, 2012 Report Posted November 15, 2012 10 or 12 lbs test - either works - never had a breakoff - Hope I didn't jinx ourselves!!!!!!! David aka Superdad PS They're coming - they're on their way in..................
Headhunter Posted November 15, 2012 Report Posted November 15, 2012 Well, as I have stated many time in Quinte threads, I run mono or lead core. 20lb mono... I ike the stretch, the elasticity and it's ability to shock absorb with long lines... tends to hold the fish better and not rip out hooks as well as impart action on my lure during a "Quinte chop"!... imho! HH
mike rousseau Posted November 15, 2012 Report Posted November 15, 2012 Actually got they didn't seem to mind strait 15 pound power pro last time either....
