I'm not sure the type and color is that important, although I use green PowerPro.

Make sure you are using fluorcarbon leaders, OK?? Make them 5-6 feet long, use big guided rods, and use a uni-knot.

Power Pro and flourocarbon for me.

I like to run 65lb line and leader material. My leaders are not that long though. I stick with the traditional lengths of 8 to 10-inches.
