Hi all,
Looking for some advice on break strains, the commercial fishery where my 9 year old goes to fish at the moment has up to and around 27-30lb carp in the lake he wants to fish.
Is there a general rule of thumb for main line break strain compared to size of fish in the lake i.e. based on 27lb fish would 25lb break strain mono (braid not allowed) be suitable and then what would be the hook length break strain compared to the main line break strain.
If you could advise the general rules for choosing break strains I would be very grateful.
Thanks,
Scott.
