Also, not all fluorocarbon leaders are created equal. I used to use seguar on everything till I tried the bloodrun leader material. The bloodrun is the stiffest I've ever used and have stuck with it.
I have a set with wire and slides with mono. Matt, its a medium action salmon rod, not a barbie pole. My rigger rods are 1101 9' light ugly sticks and haven't broken one in 30 years.
I have mediums for my inside divers and my slides. They are the cats ass for the slides and do a very good jobs with my 107 fish hawk divers. I wouldn't be too concerned at all.
