You may never have heard of or ever seen a furled leader, they used to be a thing of the past, nearly forgotten, you will not find them mass produced as they take time and effort to make. Because of the process of furling not all leaders are the same. The furled leaders I make are made by hand and offer you a chance to use a leader using age old techniques from century's past blended with today's ideas for a unmatched and superior product. After trying one, you will wonder how you ever Managed with out one.

Along with unmatched presentation, furled leaders also provide unmatched overstrike protection! Hold the butt end in one hand and the fine tip in the other, outstretch your arms and feel the stretch in this leader. This really aids in landing fish at the critical last few feet when lots of pressure is applied to land it. With other types of leaders, your tippet will usually part ways with that trophy when that much pressure is applied. Furled leaders absorb a lot of that energy enabling you to land that fish of a lifetime.

All my leaders are tied from thread, the reason being it that they really do not have any memory! Furled leaders made from nylon or fluorocarbon still retain some memory. Hold one by the Butt and see how it hangs, now try and cast the leader by hand! watch how it turns over, try that with an extracted modern tapered leader. Your leader, when it arrives will not have been treated with any floatent unless requested. This give you the option to use your our own preference. All my leaders are with "MUSLIN" including the his Vis leaders, the thread readily accepts this, you will find that a leader treated with this will float like a cork all day.
