I've become a huge fan of Orvis mirage flourocarbon taper leader. I use 3x -6x, 7 1/2 or 9 foot leader. I found the 7x to breakoff when casting flies sometimes so I seldom use. I do however use the 6x almost all the time and find it almost never breaks even with a 3 or 4 lb fish in rapid water. I would bet it breaks off less than once ever couple hundred fish, something I never found with any other leader including other flourocarbons.
