Albright Special...simple and strong.
Ok one more question. I have not ever had flouro on a spinning reel and it looks like you guys are saying to go braid and then a fluro leader. If thats the case how long of a leader are we talking? Just a normal leader like 1-3 ft or are we talking longer?

Imo, the length of the leader is entirely dependent on the water clarity that you are fishing. In stained, muddy water..a shorter leader (1.5-3 feet) will work just fine.
However in clear water, I like to go with at least a 4ft leader...anything longer and it's difficult to manage, unless of course you are fishing open water like with the Float n Fly or something similar where you will be casting into generally open water.
Just my .02
Tight Lines !!

I always tie them on about 4-5 ft. on a spinning reel. If a casting I tie it so that when I am pitching the knot is just out side of top eyelet from where I normally have the bait when pitching. Which for me is about 3-4 turns up from my reel which just feels more natural for me.
When pitching, the knot coming through the eyelet sometimes messes you up so I try to keep it out of there.
[QUOTE=BigBlueJake;474360]Any brand of floro that you guys have found to better than the rest? Anything work better for spinning reels than other brands?[/QUOTE]
I dont know about spinning reels as I dont use them, but Ive used Invizx a good while now and love it but hate the price. I tried Red Label the other day for the first time (I was cranking) and it preformed as well as Invizx. I dont know, it might fail me but so far Im pleased. $10 a spool, its as cheap as mono. I still dont know how it will handle heavy cover.
