In trout waters a fluorocarbon leader is a must. Without it you may still catch some trout but with it your catch rate goes way up. I also use it in lakes like Dale Hollow.....Center Hill.....and sometimes below Nickajack......having fished that tail race for the past 7 months I have been very surprised at how clear that water can be there at times. The Phantom fluorocarbon leader is pretty cheap. I have been using fluorocarbon leader so long that sometimes I forget to mention that I was using it. Jeff Smith taught me about fluorocarbon leader a long time ago. It can get to be a pain tying 2 knots but it is well worth the effort.
