What is the Best Leader Length for Bait?

Added by Stan Kulak on November 13th, 2010

The best leader length for bait and Kings.

I have found that if you run a daisy chain with an 8" blade the best leader length has been 34" to 36" from the swivel to the flasher/dodger. Now for a teaser with 3 skirts we stretch it out a bit more to 53". This is how I set up for KIngs. There are times I will have to shorten the leader. One thing to remember is Kings are not line shy when on the hunt and feeding.
