Belasko is right in my opinion. It does depend on the river you are fishing, as far as the Salmon goes 10# is my prefered size. I used 8# a few years ago when it was low and clear and broke off a few fish, not good when you finally hook a fish of a thousand casts. 10# is always going to be just fine on the Salmon and I have never had a break-off with it that wasn't my fault. I am also quite partial to Maxima Ultragreen, it's tough stuff. As far as leader length, I'm with Belasko, 2 feet is all around a good size.
