Fact.

60lb Test 22-34 inch leader, 5/0 sickles, beads between hooks for protection and bling, as shown.



Heavier leaders also help when Chinook slap the bait with their tail or mouth by not breaking off under the duress of a heavy strike. I've seen far too many hits take a ace-hi or hoochy clean off to run less than 60. Sure you can land bigger fish with smaller test, but a Chinook's initial strike can break thinner material.
