| Super Moderator | Sunline FC lines now available at Changi Pro Tackle! Last I checked, they stocked FC100 in #16-100lb test (only 3 spools per poundage). Don't think they've displayed it yet so ask the staff for it. Last edited by stickbom! : 30-12-2006 at 11:59 AM. |

I find Seaguar is good in lighter line class but Duel FC leader is better in higher class due to it's better knot characteristic with PE line but for abrasion resistance , Seaguar Big Game FC leader as " bite " leader is very good . I use a short " bite " leader when YellowFin Tuna fishing combined with thin mono leader to achieve long distant casting with relatively small/light lure as YellowFin Tunas don't seem to strike big lures well .

Rep Power: 2 ![]() | Re: Sunline FC lines now available at Changi Pro Tackle! Thanks guys! Good tip on the Duel. sportsfisherman, are you saying for YellowFin Tunas, you use 2 leaders? A thick short bit leader, and a longer thinner leader as cast/invisible leader? Also, does anyone see any less catches when using thicker more visible leaders compared to stealthy FC lines when popping for GTs? -zeck |

The thinner leader enhance casting distance and in YellowFin Tuna popping , the only abrasion you are likely to encounter is from the fish's mouth , therefore the short " bite " leader . With GT , I use heavier leader because of the abrasions encountered in the areas where big GTs lurk . As for stealthy FC to outfish mono , I once experienced that while barra fishing in Minburi - Thailand , other than that I have yet to prove it otherwise convincingly . Sportfisherman . | |
