Guys ,

I will answer the " casting for tunas " , here is my rig ;

PE4 line / 65 lbs braided connected to 100 lbs mono leader by means of MidKnot and then 8" of +/- 200 lbs fluorocarbon " bite " leader . If the tunas are over 100 lbs. , I may opt for stronger line such PE6 / 80 lbs braided line .

The FC leader is crimped on both ends , splitring is used to attach it to the eyelet of the lure while the other end is tied directly to the mono leader .
