I go 3lb Yamatoyo FAMELL Spinning Fluoro when using straight through.
Otherwise 6lb leader is fine for everything else. |

Yeah mate 6 lb is a good all round leader.
Even if I need to fish lighter leader then I will always start with 8lb to 6 lb and then ork my way down to 4lb ans 3 lb |

Agree, 6lb is a good all-rounder. I agree with the FC Rock comment, it's great stuff. Also if you want a fine diameter 6lb (it's actually as thin as most 4lb leaders but is rated to 6lb) try out Toray EX . This stuff is fantastic, and seems to eliminate all of the odd breaks at the leader knot when casting due to it's stretch (even if you're casting like a lunatic )

I have been using 4lb recently in harris fighter and i do have to say that it is the goods. I used to use a 6lb leader but seeing as most of most of my fishing is done from the banks i jumped to a lower poundage leader.
I would still recommend 6lb for structure though just so you have some diameter to play with Regards H2o

I use 4lb leader, but i don't really see much difference between 4lb and 6lb as long as you have right weight for Jighead

6lb is plenty light enough. I think sometimes it helps to drop lower but for me it's more of a mind set thing.

I use 6lb braid and about 2m of 4lb fluro leader. I find it hard to get a bust off even from a flathead that swollowed it whole. Point is its not the lb's you should be worried about its the fish, water and yourself. if you don't know how to angle a fish on light line then your going to lose it. if there are big toothy critters about then you have a slim chance of getting your lure back and finally water clarity. for me i found that some flurocarbon you can see better than others (in the same lb) so if you pick the right one it shouldn't matter.
I agree with everyone else on here
