That time of year to redo the gear and tie everything fresh.  How long of a leader, what brand, and what # is everyone using for their downriggers and leadcore?

Main line on rigger rods is 20# Berkley Big Game. I double uni 30' or so of Berkley 100% Fluoro for my riggers. My leaders on leadcore and copper are 25' same material.

I'm not convinced fluoro needed but just in case I can get a couple of extra bites each trip I use it. It is not as abrasion resistant as mono but school is still out re visibility.
