The 5ft polyleaders perform well in both still and moving water. The tapering makes it easy to cast and retrieve nymphs without tangles. I’ve used them with floating lines and noticed better depth control.
Paul Martin –
Good quality material and the sink rates match the descriptions. The intermediate sink rate works well for mid-water strikes. A bit stiff when first used, but breaks in after a few casts.

I use these with my floating line to reach deeper areas. The fast sink option is perfect for targeting fish in deeper zones. Easy to handle and durable.

The four density options let me adjust to different fishing conditions. The clear floating version works well for surface feeding fish.
