Re: Leader and tippet advice.

Hi Kenny,

Up here in Alaska fishing for all kinds of salmon I use 1-3' of 20lb mono with 3-5' of 13lb floro on the end. Got the combo from a really good flyfisher up here and has worked well for me. Haven't had anything break if I keep up on it, and it can turn over the heaviest of the flies I use for casting. I just adjust the length of the pieces to get the depth I want, most salmon other than sockeye don't seem to care much about the length.
