Furled Leaders Arrived

[Byron haugh]

Thanks to John Scott, I am going to give thread furled leaders a try this summer. Not having used thread leaders before, I ordered these that are 5.5' long and are made of 6/0 Uni-thread.
It is from Quigley's.
Is said to be for 5/6 wt. Lines which is what I usually fish.

Thanks John..will let you know how they perform. I fish dries, primarily, and will let you know. If they sink my fly, you and Hans will probably be able to hear my scream

Byron,

I would have suggested 7' or 7'6" for your dry fly fishing in MT and ID.

Red Mucelin treatment - before the fishing session commences. If it is a full day fishing, then again when you break around lunchtime.

You will do fine.

Good to see you post, Joni. It has been a while. I trust you are doing well?

Hans -

I routinely use thread furled leaders around 5'8" to 6' for dry fly fishing in MT and ID.

Curious why you would suggest 7' to 7'6" leaders??

Not saying you cannot, John. I am expressing a view - and will provide my reasoning - but first you tell me your typical tippet length.

Cheers,
Hans W
