Looking for a mainline to be able to fish a solid bag (korda small) with 2/3oz lead 100+ yards. Is there a line out there that can be used without a leader ? Or is tapered mainline or leader my only option?

Thanks

I use Berkley CM 90 iin15lb, straight through to a short lead core leader (around 4") for pva bags, just a loop in the mainline and loop to loop the bags on , works fine up to 80 yards for me 👍, I use 3.5 oz leads in a small Korda bag .

Esp loaded in 15lb will fire a small bag/4oz inline a long way with the right rod and reel

Depends what you're filling the bags with. You need to weigh your average solid bag and go from there.
The Korda Small bags with a 3oz lead could make 4.5 oz depending on what you put in them.
I'm guessing 0.40 at least without a Leader.
Are you sure?
