[QUOTE="Team Colibri, post: 324818, member: 11574"] I use uni to uni when using a light leader. I use a leader when fishing for trout/ seatrout/ salmon since they tend to be "braidshy". For zander (looks like a walleye) and perch i don't bother, and for (northern) pike a wire leader is a must. I preferr fluorcarbon, since it can take a bit more punishment then normal monofilament from rocka etc before snapping, and since it is harder for the fish to see under water then the mono. For bottomfishing in the ocean I always use a leader/ topshot, depending on where I'm fishing and for what, the leader is between 1 meter (three feet) and up to 2 meter, and between 0,8 mm and 1,2 mm. (Cod, halibut, coalfish, wolffish etc.) When using heavy leaders like that I use a swivel to connect leader and braid, with a soft plastic bead/ pearl that I thread onto the braid before tying on the swivel, to prevent damaging the top ring on my rods.
