I've used every product here for at least the last 10 years.  Triple fish has been around since 1961 & earned a great praise from saltwater anglers.  Smart purchase priced at only 29.95 for a 1 lb. spool!!

Fluorocarbon leaders are for all line-shy Salmon & Trout in clear, or shallow water.

Going back to 1988, used 7 strand stainless steel wire .012" that became the standard for the Great Lakes fleet.  7 strand dives much deeper with less line off the reel.  Plus, it does not collect sea fleas like braid.

45# Copper is the fleet standard for long distance fishing.  300' will get you down to the approx. 60' deep. 450' to about 90'.
