The best wire leader I've found is Boa No-Kink.

http://www.malinco.com/fishing/boa.html

It's titanium and more expensive than steel but it's way
better than steel in terms of kinking and visibility in
the water. I use the 30 lb. on all my muskie leaders.

What knot(s) have you found to be the most effective with this product?

TIA,
JT

I'm from the Wayno School of Knots with titanium wire, that
is to say, nothin' but clinch knots. I used to use an Albright
for the hard mono to wire connection but I've started building
my muskie leaders using a leader ring between the hard mono
and the wire so I just use a standard clinch on both ends.
