Topwater Caranx Ignobilis: Giant Trevally (GT) > Tackle & Techniques

Preferred leader material

<< < (5/13) > >>

Jay Burgess:
Anyone know who makes leader over 200lb, besides fisherman?

Brandon Khoo:
Jay, a heap of manufacturers make leaders heavier than 200lb. I'd probably go so far as to say that I think most manufacturers that make leaders would have offerings over 200lb.

hmm... just been looking at the most common ones used for GT popping and haven't really been able to find much.

Most leader above 200lb will be used as a shock leader/tippet.

My recommendations would be Varivas and Shogun.

Brandon Khoo:
What did you want this for, Jay? I wouldn't be looking for a leader that heavy. ABout the only thing I would use it for would be a bite leader. For a bite leader, you'd want something as abrasion resistant as you could get.
