I'm relatively new to Albuquerque and just recently started fishing (trout) the small streams in the Jemez Moutains. My current crop of fly rods are way too long for these small streams. So I have a 6' 2wt on order.

My question is about leaders. I think anything over 4ft would be too long and maybe a 3.5 ft would be better. Has anyone had experience flyfishing small streams like I'm talking about, and what size leaders do you use?

Thanks
