If I want to attach a fluorocarbon leader to the end of braided line for the invisibility when fishing in clear waters would I use a swivel or just tie a double uni? I am talking about when texas rigging or some other slow moving tactic. Also I am talking about when I am using a bobber presentation for panfishing.
What is the difference in using a specially made fluorocarbon leader line vs. using a regular fluorocarbon line?
I highly recommend using a flouracarbon leader while fishing topwater, crankbaits, jerkbaits, and even while puting bait on the bottom. In most places fish become line shy and will not take bait if they can see the line.
On my reel that has braided line the set up is as follows: 125 – 150 yards of 12 pound mono attached to 30 pound braid attached to about 6 foot flourocarbo leader.
Good Luck and Tight Lines

that connects to the line and the cast , do you super glue it together or what?
I am bass fishing and starting to throw frogs. I have never used braid before. Wouldnt braid be too dark or thick? Wouldnt the fish see it better than a mono leader?
Sooo, I’m fishing with the samurai braid – 30LB. It’s a heck of a lot thinner than I am used to. Question being : I’m a surf fisherman – stripers / blues. What kind of leader should I use on this? I’m mainly using 1-3oz plugs, slug-gos etc. Normally I would just tie on a fluorocarbon leader but now that seems heavy on this line.
