My favourite flasher setup is my main braided line down to a small in-line swivel where I convert to an 8 inch piece of 70# mono, to another in-line swivel, where I convert to 10' of 40# mono, to the swivel on my flasher. Behind the flasher I have either 1) a swivel with 3-5' of 40# mono to a spoon or 2) flasher direct to 28-36" of 40# mono to a hootchie. FYI - The 8 inch strip of 70# is where I clip my downrigger release, the reason I hardset to such a short distance between the downrigger clip and the flasher is I am fishing deep and trying to stay very tight to the bottom, and the reason I use really small (but really expensive) inline swivels is so the guests can reel them throught the guides meaning I have less line running all over the boat during landings.
So what I've been thinking about trying this year is converting either the flasher back to fluorocarbon or the 70# back.... Anyone played with flourocarbon leaders enough to have an opinion on if it's worth the $$$
I'm always willing to enhance my knowledge using someone elses pocketbook
Was it ever a nice day on the Sunshine Coast today!!!! Sunshine..... no wind..... mill pond water..... alas tonight back to 35 knots and big moguls all over the water
