RE: P-Line Shinsei Fluorocarbon Leader
I used to use 4lb and 6lb Raven fluorocarbon, then I started using 4lb, 6lb and 8lb Maxima fluorocarbon, and now I'm using 4lb, 6lb and 8lb Blackbird fluorocarbon. The only time I lose a fish is when they run me into a log jam.

The other day, I had a knot mishap and there was only one loop left unwrapped on my uni knot (I suspect the teeth had nicked the line on the knot causing the other loops to break and unravel. But I did land the fish with only one loop securing the knot. MA can be the witness of this.

"When Ken's knot fail, they are still good enough to hold and land a steelhead" was his exact words.

The line was Blackbird 4lb fluorocarbon during the mishap.

I've concluded that it really doesn't matter. The other day, I was using Blackbird and Maxima interchangeably and I caught just as many fish with both and lost just as many fish with both to log jams...

Caution - Objects in picture are smaller than they appear. I am genetically predisposed to make fish look bigger.
