Elastic For Skimmers

[TF_steve1]

What do you guys think is the best elastic for skimmers/bream in the 1 to 4lb bracket?

I currently use double number 5 or 6 preston but just wondered what anyone would use

Double 4 on a pulla or double 5

Middy Hi Viz 6-8 with a pull bung.

What depth, flow etc. 6 Latex through 3, 9H Preston or white Hydro depends on venue.
