The Basics – LBSF Kayak / Drone Deployed Leader
“The Basics” are stripped down versions of our most popular premium tackle as a lower cost alternative. These offer the same functionality at half the cost!
This particular leader design is intended to be more or less universal in application.
By using heavy cable as opposed to single strand wire, those anglers on the West Coast (California) targeting sharks known to jump and twist will not experience any “kinking” issues as with single strand.
We have included a sliding clip on the mono portion to serve as an attachment point for a “Spider Weight” or breakaway weight/sandbag.
All connections are double crimped and use only the highest quality materials. We leave our connections uncovered with no heat-shrink so that the user can inspect the connections for integrity.

Is the sliding clip on the mono section reusable?
Yes, the sliding clip is designed to be reused and can be adjusted for different weight configurations.
Can this leader be used for drone deployment in addition to fishing?

This leader performed well in rough water conditions. The cable didn’t kink even when the fish jumped violently. The sliding clip was easy to use and held the spider weight securely. No issues with the connections after several hours of use.

Good value for the price. The mono and cable are strong and reliable. I used it for kayak fishing in California and noticed no kinking during high-movement situations. The double crimped joints feel solid.

I’ve used this setup for shark fishing in coastal areas. The heavy cable stayed intact even when the fish twisted sharply. The sliding clip works well with a breakaway weight. No signs of wear after two weeks of regular use.
