furled leader with short knobless loop
The primary purpose of the leader is to allow the angler to present the fly in the most natural manner possible. The Furled Leader is User Friendly. Here are some advantages of the leaders :

  • Memory Free
  • Positive Turnover provides increased accuracy
  • Reduced micro-drag
  • Natural elasticity protects light tippets
  • Compatible with a wide variety of tippet sizes
  • User Friendly, not prone to wind knots
  • High-visibility assists the angler in tracking flies in adverse light conditions
  • Good retention of paste floatants
  • Excellent knot strength
  • Far less spray than hollow braided leaders, comparable to monofilament leaders

Disadvantages

  • Thread leaders can mildew if put away wet in a warm, dark place
  • Knots are difficult to remove
