How it is used here

Using a leader like this on Tennessee water

Line is the cheapest thing in the kit and the one that fails most. Monofilament stretches and is forgiving on trout and crappie; fluorocarbon sinks and disappears in clear water, which is most of the tailwaters and the highland reservoirs; braid has no stretch and cuts through the grass at Chickamauga and the timber at Norris. The line on each checklist is the one that suits that kit’s lures and cover.

Change it more often than feels necessary. Sun, rock ledges and the zebra mussels on the Tennessee River chew through line, and a fresh spool costs less than one lost fish. Check the last few feet by hand before every trip.
