Default pull-pull wires for 40%er....

Hi everyone! i need a real quick answer here. I need pull-pull wires for my 40%er and dont know where to buy em' from. I need to order some quickly so i can start taping my video contest video. where and what size do you guys use for your 40%ers? i can buy the size for my 30%er from my LHS, but i dont think they sell the right size for the 40%ers. I want to order it from somone so i will get it really soon. i dont know if the weather will even permit for making my video so i really need to order the pull-pull wires now
Thanks!

Tony, like Toro said go to a good tackle and bait shop and get a heavier line by sevestrand they have a caoted line that works awsome, never goes slack once you have it tight. good luck with your video

I always use Berkley nylon coated steel leader line. It comes in 30 foot spools. For 40% I get 120lb test.
