Choosing Your Fluorocarbon: Line Weight & Species Guide
Select line class based on your target species and technique. For tuna under 50 lb, opt for 20–40 lb line; yellowtail and dorado may need 30–60 lb; big bluefin or swordfish call for 80–200 lb leaders. Match leader length and diameter to water clarity and rig type: clear water demands slimmer diameters, while rocky structure warrants thicker, abrasion‑resistant line. Still not sure?
