i keep up pretty well here and I can't remember too much conversation about leaders for gill, crappie, bass fishn'

i normally use a 9' 8# if it is windy or I'm using large poppers/patterns and a 8'6" 4# the rest of the time. In the past I have used 4# mono and 6# mono singly and in combination as a leader. I am having trouble getting the leader to lay out well and some tunover probs.

What do ya"ll recommend.. i can be taught so put it on me.

thanks up-front, Michael Aldridge
