Default Leaders for pike/ walleye fishing.

Yes, I know that a steel leader is vital for pike, and that for walleye one doesn't a leader at all, but what do you guys recommend when fishing areas where both species are likely.

I've tried very short braided steel leaders, very thin single strand steel leaders, and heavy flouro leaders. Personally I haven't been able to verify that any one of these options works better than the others, but have definitely noticed that having no leader at all is quite beneficial on some days.

Interested to hear what others are using.
