Don't waste your money on that flourocarbon coated P-Line. It's garbage. It does not last very long, and when it gets stretched out, it stress the line really bad. I would go either 30lb mono or bigger for your leader or straight flourocarbon. You have to ask yourself if saving a couple of bucks is worth risking a big barn door? When I fish for halibut I always give them an extra sec to eat the bait. 50% of the time for me is that they miss it or let it go and I immediately drop back down and then I hook back up. Rather than shipping at it on the first bite, they inhale it the second time around
