Anyone know of a chart that shows what size mono will fit into dacron to make wind-on leaders?

Hi Ya    this is what i use     (400lbs or higher nylon = 200lbs dacron)
                                      (300lbs                      = 200lbs =    - )
                                      (250lbs                      = 130     =    = )
                                      (200lbs                      = 130     =    = )

if your going for 150lbs nylon & below i just use a bimini twist in my main line  and a abright knott in the leader    tightlines Alain
