I know the topic has been discussed to death here at FAOL, but I was just wondering how many FAOLers are now using furled and/or twisted type leaders for their fishing. Along with that I'd like to hear how you feel about them. I am not wanting to start a debate over furled versus regular leaders, or furled versus twisted leaders. I'm just curious as to how many on this board now use those types of leaders and what you think of them, as well as what applications work the best for you.

I've been twisting my own leaders now for about five years and have been extremely happy with them and wouldn't trade them. I have also participated in a furled leader swap and was pleasantly surprised at the variety of furled leaders out there with some real standouts as to quality and performance. I have made leaders from four feet long to 18-feet long (spring creek and spooky fish) for everything from small trout to silver salmon.

What say you?

Kelly.
