Fishing Bridle & Leader Reel: Your Complete Planer Leader System on One Spool

The Fishing Bridle & Leader Reel puts 100ft of 150lb Momoi monofilament leader and a handmade planer bridle on a single Cuban YoYo reel. No more tangled leader coils rattling around your cockpit. No more burning 10 minutes rigging a bridle while fish are busting behind the boat. You pull the YoYo out of your bag, clip the bridle to your planer, connect the leader to your mainline, and you are fishing. When the day is done, wind everything back on the YoYo and stow it. This is how serious offshore trolling anglers keep multiple planer setups ready to deploy in seconds.
  • 100ft of 150lb Momoi Extra Hard monofilament leader pre-spooled and ready
  • Handmade planer bridle built to handle repeated strikes and planer stress
  • Cuban YoYo reel stores leader and bridle tangle-free
  • Quick connect/disconnect clips to your mainline without cutting or retying
  • Targets wahoo, mahi, tuna, sailfish, kingfish, and marlin

Good Stuff

Best UV Sea Witch hair available. Measure out the hair on scale prior to tying. That way it is balanced out. Capt. Ryan Van Fleet Good Karma Sportfishing-Florida Keys. Wahoo love this stuff.

Perfect measurements and weight

Used this differently than its intended design. I made raft oars counter balances from them. Previously used steel 4lb mounted on the exterior near the grips. These I was able to install into the shaft and at 5lbs was able to get the weight away from the grips. Both oars took about 30 minutes. Another bonus is the seller got the weights to me in 4 days vice 12 Amazon predicted.

great bonito bait

Used these jigs this week and crushed the bonito on the east coast. This is a good bait to mimic the small bait fish in our area. Also great pack for a 2 pack. I bought a few different colors.

Awesome bait for Hybrid striped Bass.

Purchased these and first trip out boated several very nice Hybrids. The fish were in 5-7lb range. The bait falls fast and the hooks are very sharp for solid hook ups. Glad I had an extra one because I gave it to my buddy in the boat and he immediately hooked up. These baits worked so well, I ordered several more. I also referred several of my friends to the site to order this bait.

Quick delivery, great service

I live six hours from my boat in Swansboro and want my gear perfect when I step onto it a few times a month. I’ve counted on TheTackleRoom for many years to make sure I get what I need, when I need it before I head to the coast, and they have always delivered. I just received another order and am glad the level of service has stayed top notch.

Deploy Your Bridle in Seconds, Not Minutes

You know the drill. Fish are crashing bait 200 yards out, and you are standing in the cockpit untangling 100ft of leader from a zip-lock bag. By the time your planer hits the water, the bite is over. The Fishing Bridle & Leader Reel fixes that problem permanently.

Everything lives on one Cuban YoYo reel. The bridle is already attached. The leader is already spooled. You grab the YoYo, unwind what you need, clip to your mainline, and deploy. The whole process takes 30 seconds. When you run multiple planer setups (and you should), keep a loaded YoYo for each one. Swap species, swap depths, swap leader lengths without retying anything.

At the end of the trip, wind the leader back on the YoYo and toss it in your bag. No coils. No kinks. No knots. Your leader stays straight and your bridle stays connected. That is the difference between a system and a pile of loose mono.

100ft of 150lb Momoi Monofilament Leader

This is not bargain-bin mono. Momoi Extra Hard is the leader material that charter captains actually buy with their own money. 150lb test gives you the abrasion resistance to survive wahoo teeth, planer hardware, and repeated deployments. 100ft is enough to run a full planer spread with room to retie when you trim the ends. The leader comes pre-spooled on the YoYo with no memory coils or twist.

Handmade Planer Fishing Bridle

Every bridle in this kit is hand-tied by Epic Fishing Co. and tested before it ships. The bridle connects your planer to the leader and takes the brunt of every strike, every trip, every wave slap. A bad bridle costs you fish. This one is built with the same knots and the same materials we use on our own boat. It comes pre-attached to the leader so you are rigged and ready out of the package.

Cuban YoYo Storage System

The Cuban YoYo reel is the simplest, most reliable way to store heavy monofilament leader. No moving parts. No corrosion points. No tangles. Wind your leader on after each trip and it stays coil-free and kink-free until the next one. The YoYo is compact enough to fit in a tackle bag pocket, and tough enough to bounce around a boat deck all season. When you run 3 or 4 planer setups, having each one on its own YoYo means you grab and go.

How to Use the Fishing Bridle & Leader Reel

  1. Unwind the leader from the Cuban YoYo reel to your desired length. For most planer trolling setups, 50 to 80ft of leader works well.
  2. Attach the bridle end to your inline planer using the snap swivel. The bridle slides through the planer clip and holds tension while trolling.
  3. Connect the leader end to your mainline on the rod and reel using the quick-connect snap. No cutting or retying required.
  4. Deploy your planer and let it pull to the side of the boat. Attach your lure or bait to a stinger line behind the planer.
  5. After fishing, disconnect from the mainline, wind the leader back onto the YoYo, and stow. Your setup is ready for the next trip.

What's included with the Fishing Bridle & Leader Reel? +
You get 100ft of 150lb Momoi monofilament leader pre-spooled on a Cuban YoYo reel with a handmade planer bridle already attached. Everything is rigged and ready to fish out of the package. If you need the planer itself, check out the Planer Bridle Kit which includes the planer, bridle, and leader reel together.
What pound test is the leader? +
The leader is 150lb Momoi Extra Hard monofilament. That is heavy enough to handle wahoo, tuna, and marlin while surviving the abrasion from planer hardware and repeated use. For more on leader selection, read our Fishing Leaders FAQ.
Is this compatible with the Planer Bridle Kit? +
Yes. This is the same bridle and leader system included in the Planer Bridle Kit, just sold without the planer. If you already own an Old Salty Planer or another inline planer, this is exactly what you need to rig it up.
How do I store the leader and bridle after fishing? +
Wind the leader back onto the Cuban YoYo reel after each trip. The YoYo keeps the mono straight with zero tangles or memory coils. Stow it in a tackle bag pocket or hang it in your garage. Read more about the YoYo system in our Cuban YoYo guide.
What species can I target with this setup? +
This bridle and leader system is built for offshore trolling. Primary targets include wahoo, mahi mahi, tuna, sailfish, kingfish, and marlin. The 150lb leader handles all of them. Check our Wahoo Fishing Guide and Mahi Fishing Guide for species-specific rigging tips.
Why do I need a bridle for planer fishing? +
The bridle is what connects your planer to the leader and absorbs the constant tension of trolling. Without a proper bridle, your planer pulls unevenly, your leader takes unnecessary stress, and your whole spread suffers. A good bridle keeps the planer tracking straight and releases cleanly on a strike. Learn the full system in our Inline Planer Bridle System guide.
Can I replace just the leader when it wears out? +
Absolutely. When your leader gets chewed up or you trim it down too short, grab a spool of Momoi Extra Hard Mono Leader and re-spool the YoYo. The bridle stays attached. You can also buy a replacement bridle separately if you need one.
What is the Cuban YoYo reel for? +
The Cuban YoYo is a simple hand reel that stores your leader and bridle in one tangle-free package. No moving parts, no corrosion, no mess. It keeps 100ft of heavy mono organized and ready to deploy. If you want extra YoYos for additional setups, grab them separately from our Cuban YoYo product page.
