Just a reminder, you ONLY need a fluoro leader when fishing in clear water. When fishing stained or darker water just use your Power Pro braid.

Its OK, just make sure you have a smooth knot on the braid to the leader, it will sometimes catch on the tip eyelet when casting

I recommend the Albright Special knot for attaching Fluoro to braid. Easy to tie and strong. Lots of tutorials on various internet sites. Good luck!
