    Default Furled leaders for pike

    I am looking for a couple furled leaders for pike fishing. Want fluorocarbon and built for an 8 or 9 weight tossing big flies.

    I would rather buy them from and individual than a big company.

    Thanks
    Joe

    Wouldn't Kevlar be a good idea?

    Could be but then why fluoro, fluoro doesn't stretch. Kevlar is bullet proof (no pun intended) so you can get away with smaller diameter which means better turn over (more supple)

    Fluoro does streatch, as much or more than mono!! I did some pull testing and at 4# the fluoro did quite well. The leaders made from 2# test fluor out did the 4# test though.
