    • @RhysFishes
      @RhysFishes  Před 2 lety +2

      Yes James/Michael. Either a 20lb wire trace or a 60lb fluorocarbon leader. We found that there was more interest when we switched to the wire over the fluoro for some reason. On the business end were just dyckers flies. Fantastic baitfish imitation flies from Finland I believe.
