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.
