Dorado fishing question

Going to Loreto middle of July to hopefully hook into some dorado, what fishing line #test do you recommend.

Thx

40LB if you are using mono-filament.

30 or 40 if mono like Howard said.

Maybe bring some floro leader line too, 50# -80 # maybe some heavier too. Practice your knots to attach the leader to your main line.

One can spend hours practicing the different latest and greatest leader to main line knots and then the skipper will look at your work and retie yours anyways. :lol:

Ultimately your skipper will know what to do and tackle is readily available in Loreto at various shops including Ferramar.

Enjoy your trip and post a report in the fishing and hunting section. We try to keep that spot on topic although not much action these days as most who used to post there just gave up, got too old or both.
