Perlon single leader. I think it comes in 4 foot strands and a variety of weight classes.

That stuff reminds me of the mono rigs I found in SWMBO's deceased father's tackle. Wasn't good to me for much of anything except making snelled hooks or those old spin and glow fluke rigs !

It allows you to not use any terminal tackle and not get tangled.
When tied and or rigged properly. Some people scheme in rigging
have no issues with a standard Ande mono fishing line. I also prefer
the Perlon straight leader. If I have braid on. I'll tie a top shot of mono
and then start tieing, rigging to that, weights vary.

it looks like a clothes line to the fish ...yes thousands of fish have been caught with it.....but I gotta say it because your a nice guy Matt...don't use that chit!! lol
Works fine. Never seen you catch anything with fluoro either. Your wife on the other hand is like a dragged. She catches everything.

You may just catch a record after me telling you that LOL.....But seriously...using fluorocarbon leader and then attaching that stuff is like wiping ur butt and then taking a dump ....don't be a "BENNY" 🙂

Seaguar is superior. Super thin in diameter. Exceeds it's ratings.
The clearest invisible line there is.

His technique on the rail is flawless. when it came time to bump into full and
get into the belt and harness. You're in full, palm on spool, adding to drag and lifting.
Waiting for give way and cranking down, gaining line. He didn't have what it takes.
The rail isn't IGFA legal. The belt and harness is. Diving fish, quick release straps.
In and out. He doesn't have it. He's going to show you what to do. I'm still waiting.
The one guy in the island that caters to this type of fishing and does the two week
runs to Socorro. They don't practice it. He doesn't practice it. He hugs the rail.
They caught a supercow. Under what rules? CONFUSED!

I'm not interested anymore. I'm completely turned off. It's my own backyard.

I'm not the captain. I'm not the mate. I'm not the deck hand.
Don't ever touch any of my tuna equipment or my rods.
I'm the fisherman! 😉
I'm not looking to gaff anybody's fish when I'm paying a fare.
I'm not looking to wire the fish.
I'm looking to do the actual fishing.
Feel free to pull on the equipment with the drag scale.
I'm not interested anymore ! ! ! ! ! !

We're obviously not new to this anymore.
How much does this weight?
How much does this cost?
Can you prove to me anymore how much of a sissy you are?

Perlon was the standard for a long time. Its readily available and cheap. You also dont know how old it is when you buy it. Age and sunlight are not kind to mono. Im a stickler for that sort of thing especially with Flouro leader.

I feel that Tynex is the better choice. It has less memory and doesn't twist up after a few fish. Also seems more abrasion resistant.

If you plan of tying a big batch of hooks, I suggest you tie with both products and see for yourself.

Shelf life, the product is stored properly at ambient temperature.
Not near the radiator, outside or in a cold dingy basement, room.
There's a huge difference between a reputable company and some
fly by night cheap stuff.

20 pound mono is strong enough for you?

I'll give it a shot and see. I tried looking up Tynex, can't find much on it.
