Best Downrigging Line for Salmon Trolling

[wheelingmike]

I run mostly flasher/fly rigs for kings in the fall. Been using 20 lb. big game for many years but have been recently viewing seaguar invizx and other fluorocarbon mainlines. I've had problems with twisting and would like to know if Ontario Salmon fisherman recommend using the fluorocarbon mainlines or what best to run for downrigging fall kings.

I use 30 lb Maxima in Ultra Green, fleas don't collect line is a great performer been using it for years. For rigger reels better off sticking to Mono or a Co-Polymer

I just leave the 30 lb SeaFlee on all season and leader down with 12lb Seaguar for the Finger Lakes and 20 lb for lake O.. I think the brittle stiff nature of fluoro is fine for leaders but not so great for mainlines. and especially so for the riggers.

I have been running 30lbs. big game. Cheap and no fleas.

Any idea how much 30lb mono will fit on a Diawa 47lc? And do I need a small layer of braid backing to avoid slipping?

[thumbburn]

A lot of it will fit....... And just tie it on and reel it up
