Asso tapered in 70lb mega stuff as is the bullet tapered,but like mentioned is expensive if your fishing the real ruff stuff.
The blue marlin is very very good,been using it for my rig bodies these last few weeks/mnths,knots incredibley well n is really supple,i know paul rants n raves about it,but it is true,proper gear,dosen't kink when u knot it n certainlly is strong stuff.
Reckon it would be good for your leader too,it's my number one rig body material now...

I've been using tapered leaders for a while now but I'm getting ****ed right off with them snapping below the knott. Going to switch to straight leader once I find and learn a decent knott cos i think a back to back uni will be too big for my liking. One of my mates uses a Bimini twist but it's a right clart on to tie.All the gear, no idea.

Everyone has their favourite knot. Being old-school I still use the knot I was using 25 years ago - the overhand / uni-knot combo. Dead simple to tie and plenty strong enough for most fishing...

I always use clear rig body but fancy getting some Marlin for leader and rigs.
