TackleDirect’s Take on Seaguar Blue Label Big Game Fluorocarbon Leader Coils
Seaguar Blue Label Fluorocarbon Leader is made in Japan through a rigorous manufacturing process and has been one of our top selling fluorocarbon leaders for many years. Seaguar incorporates a double-strucutre process that fuses two separate Japanese 100% fluorocabon resins to create a single strand of leader that is known for its exceptional knot strength and tensile strength while maintaining near invisibility under water. While there are many fluorocarbon leader options to choose from with many coming in much cheaper, we highly recommend Seaguar Blue Label for all offshore anglers. When you are trolling for tuna, billfish, dolphin (mahi mahi), wahoo and more, Seaguar Blue Label Fluorocarbon will help get you more bites with its near invisibiliy and will also result in more landed fish with its reduced stretch and increased abrasion resistance in comparison to monofilament and even other fluorcarbon leaders on the market. It is often the top choice for tournament captains and crews with millions of dollars on the line and has gained the trust of anglers worldwide. Traditionanlly only availabe in 30yd coils in breaking strengths from 90lb to 400lb, Seaguar Blue Label Big Game Fluorocarbon is now also available in bulk 110yd coils in select breaking strengths like 130lb, 150lb, 180lb, and 200lb.
Pro tips
- Keep Your Leader Clean: Make sure to keep your flurocarbon as clean as possible and it is a good idea to run the fluorocarbon through a microfiber rag or sunglass cleaning wipes before dropping back your baits to maintain the leader’s near invisibility.
- Refresh Your Leader Regularly: And once the leader is scratched you are better off swapping your leader as it will no longer be as effective at refracting sunlight and will actually reflect more sunlight, making it more visible and potentially leading to less bites.
TackleDirect’s Top Choice for Big Game Fluorocarbon Leader
Seaguar Blue Label, Seaguar’s original fluorocarbon leader, is by far our top choice when recommending a fluorocarbon leader for big game anglers. While there are other fine options out there, Seaguar Blue Label provides the perfect combination of abrasion resistance, impact strength, and near invisibility that will consistently get you more bites and land more fish.
The 90FC30 (90lb x 30yds) is rated with a breaking strength of 90lbs, a diameter of .91mm and is the lightest option in the Blue Label Big Game lineup. It is a great option for building your own ballyhoo rigs for yellowfin tuna, dolphin (mahi mahi) and more. We also recommend bluefin tuna anglers to have a coil of 90lb onboard for those days when you are not getting bit on heavier fluorocarbon and want to drop down to the thinner diameter 90lb in an effort to salvage the day. This is especially true for days where there is excessive boat traffic and dropping down to the smaller diameter 90lb may be the difference between getting the skunk and coming back to the dock with a solid fish.
The 100FC30 (100lb x 30yds) is rated with a breaking strength of 100lbs, a diameter of 1.05mm, and is also a great option when targeting yellowfin, dolphin and leader shy bluefin tuna on the troll.
The 130FC30 (130lb x 30yds) and 130FC110 (130lb x 110yds) are the go-tos for many anglers targeting inshore bluefin tuna on the troll or when yellowfin tuna trolling in the canyons with its solid combination of abrasion resistance and near invisibility. It is also commonly used when targeting giant bluefin tuna with live baits when the bite gets tough and fish are leader shy.
The 150FC30 (150lb x 30yds) and 150FC110 (150lb x 110yds) is rated with a breaking strength of 150lbs, a diameter of 1.28mm and is also a solid option for inshore bluefin and canyon yellowfin tuna trolling. Also suitable for live bait and chunking applications.
The 180FC30 (180lb x 30yds) and 180FC110 (180lb x 110yds) is rated with a breaking strength of 180lbs, a diameter of 1.38mm, and is favored for heavy duty canyon trolling for large yellowfin tuna and big eye tuna. Also a great option for larger model bluefin tuna.
The 200FC30 (200lb x 30yds) and 200FC110 (200lb x 110yds) is rated with a breaking strength of 200lbs, has a diameter of 1.48mm and is favored for heavy duty canyon trolling. It is also commonly used when targeting larger model bluefin and big eye tuna.
The 220FC30 (220lb x 30yds) is rated with a breaking strength of 220lbs, has a diameter of 1.66mm and is favored for heavy duty canyon trolling. It is also a great option when targeting larger model bluefin, big eye tuna, billfish and other heavy duty applications.
The 300FC30 (300lb x 30yds) with a breaking strength of 300lbs and diameter of 1.81mm, and 400FC30 (400lb x 30yds) with a breaking strength of 400lbs and diameter of 2.13mm are typically used when rigging up large blue marlin and black marlin lures. Its reduced stretch and impressive abrasion resistance compared to the competition strongly come into play here to produce solid hooksets and more landed fish. This is our top choice for any angler looking to get ready for an upcoming tournament and wanting to target the biggest billfish in the ocean. Some wahoo anglers also opt to use this instead of single strand wire or 49 strand cable in an effort to produce more bites without losing too many lures to bite offs.
