I use a 3-5 feet of 30 lb fluoro leader. I've found that 40 lb can be a bit of a liability on a kayak. If snagged on the bottom 40 lb is extremely hard to break off. I've almost flipped my narrow OK prowler trying to break 40 lb. Sad but true, I hooked a dolphin on 40 and could not break it off. I'd think it would be almost impossible on a kayak to fish enough drag to need 40. Mike
