Hand tied leader features improved turn over vs a knotless tapered leader. They are each designed for particular applications with time tested tapers and designs. Each section is chosen for stiffness/ suppleness, clarity, and strength. Designed for the dry fly angler who may need to make longer casts while maintaining line control and presentation. These leaders feature stiff butt and mid sections with supple tippet. This design allows for a wonderful balance as most of the leader effortlessly turns over, while leaving enough slack in the tippet for delicate presentation.
