Preferred leader material
Patrick Naslund:
Mark.
I don't know where my head was when I wrote that :P
I meant fluoro or mono (for the bite leader part)
Duncan O'Connell:
Sunline Big Game 210lb is usually what we use for the shock leader.
For a bite tippet either of 330lb Sunline Big Game or 300lb Moi Moi Ultra Hard both work well. Although we have used up to 400lb Moi Moi in some cases.
Patrick Naslund:
Fish Head.
Thanks.. bite tippet might be a better word to use :)
I'm thinking of making some bite tippets ( crimping ) aprox 50 cm ? for times I might need one.

On the odd occasion when I use a bite leader for popping, I use a short fluoro section
150lb to 200lb, maybe 30 cm. Even lightish fluoro is going to be better at abrasion resistance than any mono.
Brandon Khoo:
Does anyone have any idea on just how much more abrasion resistant fluorocarbon is than mono?
