Default what # leader for bulls ?

i use 20# leader for macks but have never really tried for bulls before. i tend to use heavier leader than i need to.i like less hookups and less lost fish versus lots of hookups and only a few fish to the boat. do i need to down size or is 20 # o.k. headed to lbc in march, just want to get all my ducks in a row. thanks

I use grain... .to lead bulls. Works great

Like I always say, better to be a smart axx than a bumb axx.

Been using 12 lb Maxima for years. Tried Pline and Seagur flouro last year and went back to the Maxima. I've only had a couple bite me off.
