[red][size 3]Lotz of good suggestions here. I started using spiderwire backer after the thought getting stripped to the last color from a big Fishlake mac. I use about 15 feet of spiderwire leader on the other end tied with the overhand knot method and then a small swivel then mono from there. It takes a little more effort to spool your line out but seems to save on the wear and tear of the end of your leaded line. The biggest word of caution: Do not let your spool get spinning faster than your line is spooling out or you will have the nastiest birdsnest you could ever dream about. I have noticed no difference in the sinking rate or running depth of the different pound lines but the 27 will take up a little more room in your reel. If you are after Kokanee don't forget to add a snubber somewhere in there! [/size][/red]
