	For braided lines I have used a 6-8 foot leader of fluorocarbon for its abrasion resistance and lower visibility, but I've grown tired of it's unforgiving knot strength. For those using braid do you tie directly to a metal leader?

	Braided line is much stronger than mono so I only use a leader if northerns are on the catch list. If I use a leader I would tie the line directly to the leader. If I am not using a leader, I would tie directly on a small snap. The snap allows me to change lures with no need to retie.
