Tornado,

For plug fishing steelhead just tie directly to the plug with the PowerPro. This is all I and fishing partners have done for years with steelhead with no problems at all. The fish don't see the PP line anyway, it's green and blends as well or better than most monos. For springers and falls I run a mono leader because of the teeth the chinook have and the poor abrasion resistance associated with braids. If you choose to use the PP for drift fishing then by all means use a mono front as again it will help prevent break offs resulting from low abrasion resistance.

Best wishes,

RM
