Default Re: My new nightmare...

No I don't like that multi strand stuff it's bulky and like said gets frayed. I use nickel titanium single strand wire leader and I've never snapped it before. In fact I once snapped the eagle claw swivel I was using on it once (wont use eagle claw since that if I can avoid it). All I can guess is that both the rod and leader had been damaged at some point and I didn't notice. Like I said, dragged in a 47" musky on that exact entire setup...I was totally baffled when everything busted on me...I'm not saying it was bigger than that musky but it was a huge fish!
