I use 30/8 PowerPro for muskies. PowerPro is much better than Fireline. It casts well and trolls well (lures dive deeper than with mono). Tip it with a titanium leader--they're more expensive than steel but to maintain the smaller diameter, titanium is best. You do need a steel leader, as a muskie's teeth will cut a superline. Also, when fishing any superline, remember there is no stretch, so use a limber rod and set your drags light--tight enough to ensure a good hook set but light enough to let them run.
