Steelhead & Atlantic Salmon Hand Tied Leader - 9 Foot

Product Description
.....New! "Perfect Fly" Leaders
If you don't have the proper leader and tippet for
steelhead or the Atlantic Salmon, you really can’t
present the flies being used correctly. You also won't be
able to play and land the fish quickly to minimize any
stress or harm to the fish. Our Perfect Fly leaders
transfer energy from the fly line to the fly in a predictable
manner, yet they are stiff and strong enough to fight the
fish with an adequate amount of pressure for a quick
release time.
Being able to present your "Perfect Fly" Steelhead and
Atlantic Salmon files properly requires a good tapered
leader, irregardless of the type of fly you are fishing. The
leader should be soft enough to have the proper amount
of elasticity in order to absorb the shock of the sudden
surge of a steelhead or Atlantic salmon, yet be hard
enough to be as resistant to abrasion as possible. You
cannot land large fish on frayed leader material, or with
tangles and wind knots in your leader and tippet.
Our hand tied, 5 section Perfect Fly steelhead and
Atlantic Salmon tapered mono leaders have a very large
diameter butt section that helps make a smooth
transition from the fly line to the leader. The midsection
tapers gradually down in three steps to the terminal
tippet part of the leader ranging from eight to twelve
pound test. These leaders transfer energy from the fly
line to the tippet smoothly and will turn over large and
small, single and double hook streamers, egg flies,
nymphs and even large dry flies.
