JK:

The mag is "Salmon - Trout - Steelheader".

You should be able to find it at your local market.

I have been using a 4' leader..never tried a tippet. Using a 8 - 10lb. flouro-carbon or Mono leader means that if (when) you hang up you can bust off the leader and not lose all your terminal gear conncected above it on a 3/way swivel.

I've only fished this stuff for one year, so the other guys are the experts here...but glad to share what little I do know.
