I have most of my reels spooled with hi-vis yellow braid and was wondering how long of a mono or Fluro leader do you use? Or does it really matter? Normally I only use about 10 to 12 ft. of mono leader but my main line has always been mono.

FWIW it doesnt matter what color the braid is, they can see it all equally. most people with hollowcore use about 100’ give or take windon leader. i will be putting 150’ of mono on high speed trolling outfits. now, if you arent going to wind-on, i would say no more than 12’ because then you will run into problems leadering big fish. flouro is better, but the main thing is to go as light as you can for rigging the lures. dont need 100lb for mahi, 40lb is plenty.
