[QUOTE="BigTerp, post: 349686, member: 9169"] Starting messing with a fluoro leader this year and have been having issues with the leader breaking off at the hook end, so I gave up. I'm using Cabela's brand fluoro leader in 6# and 15# SpiderWire Stealth Braid. I use a uni-to-uni knot to tie my fluoro to braid and a improved clinch knot to tie my hook to my fluoro leader. Maybe my knot tying skills are lacking? Or I'm using the wrong knot? But I've never had issues with braid or mono breaking at the hook using an imporoved clinch knot. Fishing stained water of my local river, I don't think a fluoro leader is necessary, but once the river clears later this spring and summer I think a fluoro leader may be helpful. Any thoughts on why I'm having breaking issues? [/QUOTE]
