What type of line do you prefer and what test?

Thanks,

30 lb. Braid with about a 10 ft. 8 lb. Fluoro Leader.

Do you use a uni knot to tie them together? Or use a double sided swivel?

I use 8 lb flourocarbon.

10lb sufix braid mainline, 4-10lb sunline sniper for leader

Either a uni to uni knot or a blood knot (which is why I like 30 lb. braid, because it has the same diameter as the 8 lb. Fluoro.)  I used to use a swivel, but I started to forget it was there and wind in up into my guides.

I use 20lb braid though. Bit shorter of a leader. And either 8lb or 12lb fluoro.  Uni-uni connection.

8 lb braid, 6 lb flouro leader connected with a double uni knot.

I use 6# Halo or InvizX, which ever is available at the time.

here's another vote for invizx in 6#. I can get away with 6# test. choose your line strength according to the cover you will face.

2/10 Spiderwire Stealth and Orvis "Mirage" 2X leader material, tied together with a barrel swivel.
