Make sure to remove about 6" of lead out of the line so your tying to the outer braid only and not the lead. Once your lead core is spooled on, attach to 60 feet or so of 8 or 10 lb fluorocarbon using another small barrel swivel. Finally attach to 10' of 6 lb test fluorocarbon again using a barrel swivel. You will be good to go then!

Happy Fishing!!
