The leader feels smooth and easy to handle. It works well in stillwater with dry flies and nymphs. The taper helps with natural presentation and keeps the line from snagging.

Good quality nylon with a supple feel. I used it for trout fishing in a calm lake and noticed better float control. Lengths are practical for most setups.
