Best leader for ice fishing

What Is the Best Leader for Ice Fishing Pike?

In order to be able to safely land your ice pike, you either need a strong fluorocarbon leader of about 50-60lb or a titanium wire leader of about 25-30lb. Both leaders have good abrasion resistance and will be able to handle the ice hole’s sharp edges, even under hard pressure.
