Looking to buy some J Braid for spodding coupled with a leader.

What breaking strain/Diameter should I get?

0.16 is recommended I think and do I get the standard version or the grand?

I'm using the 0.22mm 37.5lb braid x8 for spodding. Have had no issues with it.

0.19 dia for me which I think is 25lb in the grand version with a 30lb Armokord shock leader.
It sails out
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
