no NEED, however fluoro will save your a$$ when he takes you to the jagged rocks. It's much more abrasion resistant than mono. And pricier...

FWIW, I normally use about 15 0r 20' of 50 or 60 lb. mono leader attached to my braid via a Red Phillips or a GT/Sebile knot.  I snell my hooks to 80 lb mono leader.

Well I think it's a personal preference more then anything. But Mono is a bit more supple then Fluoro Carbon, which is what I was saying I use in 40# and is a harder line to tie knots with. You could also use braided for leaded, just make sure you use the knots recommended for Braided.

Its better to sit in a boat and think about God, than to sit in a church and think about fishing.
