These leaders perform well in cold, wet conditions. The 14-foot length is perfect for long casts without losing accuracy. The knot strength is noticeably better than previous brands I’ve used. Packaging is easy to handle and the biodegradable materials are a plus for the environment.
Ruth Anderson –
I’ve used these for several trout outings and they hold up well in rain. The taper delivers the fly smoothly, and the leader doesn’t absorb water like others do. Great for small dry flies and spooky fish.
Carol Miller –
The length is longer than expected and helps with casting distance. A bit stiffer than I hoped, but still manageable. The wet strength is impressive and the packaging is eco-friendly.
