| Re: shockleader A shock leader is a length of line strong enough to take this added pressure, that generally when casting runs from the rig top through the rod rings and then 6-10 turns around the reel spool, in general around 30ft in length is plenty. Both the shock leader and the rig body should be at least 10lb breaking strain for every 1oz of leader being used, ie 50lb for a 5oz lead. Hope his helps |
