Trout Hunter EVO Drift Leader
EVO Drift leaders provide greatly improved knot strength, higher resistance to abrasion and impact, improved flotation, longer life, and no memory to aid in drag-free drifts and more technical fish.
EVO Drift are the ultimate in leaders. The improved performance is achieved through the application of our EVO coating to our leader material. EVO coatings result in much stronger knot strengths with no noticeable increase in diameter. EVO also adds a measure of durability in combating abrasion and repels water. Memory is nearly non-existent and the leaders are tapered to provide strong turnover and produce drag-free drifts over the most technical fish.
The result is a family of leaders which will excel at dry fly fishing in all situations. Available as 9-foot and longer.

FAQ
What makes the EVO coating different from standard leader materials?
The EVO coating increases knot strength without increasing diameter and provides better resistance to abrasion and water repelling properties.
Do these leaders work well with dry fly fishing?
Yes, they are specifically designed to excel in dry fly fishing due to improved flotation and drag-free drift performance.
Are the leaders tapered for better performance?
Yes, the leaders are tapered to provide strong turnover and help maintain drag-free drifts over technical fish.

I’ve used these leaders for several seasons now and they hold up well in windy conditions. The knot strength is excellent and the leaders don’t tangle or remember their shape. Great for dry fly fishing on rocky streams.
Owen Miller –
The 9-foot leader performs perfectly in my daily dry fly sessions. It floats well and stays smooth even when fishing in fast water. No memory issues and the abrasion resistance is noticeable.
Angela Edmunds –
Solid performance overall. The drift is smooth and the leader doesn’t snag easily. A bit more expensive than standard options, but worth it for the durability and performance.
Dorothy Glover –
Used them on a challenging river trip and they handled the technical fish without breaking. The water repelling feature helps keep the leader dry during rain.
