leadcore leader length?

What are people using for length on their leader on the lead? Im using about 75 feet. I wondering though, when your out 8-10 colors if that extra length of leader rises back upwards some.

Re: leadcore leader length?

That's about what I use and we've been banging them on the lead.

Re: leadcore leader length?

I am only running 25 feet now, and i am not banging them on the lead like salty says, maybe something to do with it. I figure we are running 240 feet of lead out i don't need to reel in another 100 feet of leader too.

Re: Re: leadcore leader length?

In the Spring to mid-Summer we run about 100' that way we can use the same rod/reel set up on the riggers if we want. This time of year (today actutally) we change the line and shorten them up to 50', but I'm not exactly banging them, but we have in the past. Others I know use and recomend from 30 to 50 feet. Taking the advice of those that are banging them I would say 40 to 50 feet is where I want to be.
