FAQ
What is the difference between floating and sinking leaders?
Floating leaders are ideal for use with floating lines and are effective when targeting species like salmon and steelhead that stay near the surface. Sinking leaders, such as Slow, Fast, and Extra Super Fast, help the fly reach deeper waters and reduce drag when using a floating line.
Is the 10′ length available in X-Strong?
Yes, the 10′ length is available in X-Strong, providing added strength for heavier gear or more demanding conditions.
Can I use these leaders with Bombers?
Yes, floating leaders work well when fishing Bombers, making them a good choice for surface or near-surface presentations.
Mary Mathis –
Used the 10′ Fast sink leader with a Bomber rig and noticed better depth control in steelhead runs. The line stayed strong and didn’t break under pressure. Good for both surface and deeper strikes.
Rachel Jackson –
The Extra Super Fast leader got my fly down quickly in deep water. It’s a bit more expensive but worth it for consistent results in cold water fishing.
James Simpson –
Switched from traditional leaders to this product and saw a noticeable improvement in catch rate. The 5′ float works well for surface fish, and the sinking options are reliable.
