    What surfstix said, I also get my fluoro leader online from cabelas. I have used seaguar as a secondary brand when buying at a marina or tackle shop. I feel it makes a difference when fishing for striped bass in the daytime. In a bunker frenzy, maybe not. However, definitely when chunking I have seen better results with flouro.

    Default cabelas vs seguar

    Personally I don't see much difference between the 2. Just my opinion.

    I don't see much difference between the two and as mentioned above if the water is not clear and clean it probably doesn't matter but why buy two leader materials I just get the fluoro even though it costs more.

    Default Leader Material

    I tried Fluoro a while back and for some reason, it and me just didn't get along. I don't really use a leader material, but use regular Ande clear line in 40/60/80 lb. test at different times of the year. Although I use those as leaders, I mainly stick with a 30 lb. low vis green mono line as my regular leader.

    a guy I work with gave me a spool of seaguar 50 flouro,it is good but, I have not noticed any diff from what I have been using.
    I normally use 80lb big game which I got from a guy at my local B&T that was dumping his line from his tuna rig,I took it and have been using it for about 5 years now.got a lot of it.
    I also have on hand sea-striker clear mono in 50 and 60lb when needed,have lots of leaders pre made and in my leader wallet courtesy of Monty.
