J♣, it either wins when partner has a club holding or alternatively, is the lead least likely to give anything away.
Is the word "pass" not in your vocabulary?

i led the 8 of hearts. turns out its the only lead that beats 6n. i think just luck, but opp had to type in "interesting lead". i get a little upset about comments like that. when i think opps have balanced hands i almost always lead passively. im not going to lead the opening bid suit (clubs). im not going to lead a diamond(ive done this and had it run to the or q in declarers hand . im not going to lead a spade because of the 9 of spades.
thanx for the comments all :)
