I use this leader for trout fishing in clear waters. The color-coded loops make it easy to identify the sink rate at a glance. It’s simple to attach and helps me adjust depth without changing lines. Works well in both still and moving water.

The 7-foot length is perfect for my setup. I appreciate the welded loop at the butt—it’s quick to rig. The black S6 version sinks just right for deeper water, and the clear options are great for visibility.

This has become my go-to leader for float fishing. I can switch sink rates on the fly, which is a big time-saver. The design is compact and doesn’t add much bulk to my line.
