Yet another weird question from me. I saw some paste by the float paste in Cabellas, and was wondering how this would work on my furled thread leaders. I don't do much nymphing but like to do so on occasion. Has anyone tried this or heard of it?

I think the sinkpaste would ruin the leader for dryfly fishing. For nymphing I use one made with fluorocarbon. Depending on how deep you are fishing just adding a tippet of fluoro would let you get down faster.
Diddo what Jack says.
Thanks for the advice on this I appreciate it. I will definately try this out now. Would you say this makes the leader strong just by using flurocarbon for the tip?
Really doesn't have to do with strength. I agree with Jack but missed the fact that he was also referring to just a fluoro tippet. Personally I would use both a fluoro furled leader and a fluoro tippet. Thread leader and fluoro tippet will not get you down very far...sometimes ...[emergers] that is good.
I agree with ducksterman on the fluorocarbon furled leader to get down deep. However you will have a tough time fishing dry flys with one. If you are useing a loop to loop connection it's not that bad to change out.
