The only reason for a leader is to affect the action of the lure, if needed. If treble hooks, skirts, etc don't spook the fish, then I don't think they would be that concerned with thin fishing line.

It's a personal preference. The leaders I tie on average are about 8.5 feet in length. I am not big on retying new leaders for every presentation so I initially tie on a long leader and as I switch lures or hooks it will decrease in length. Once I get down to 2 feet I put a new leader on.

This is me in a nutshell.
