Leader lengths


Recommended Posts

For??  For a main-line leader?  For a fly leader?  

 

Main-line leader would be from length of rod tip down to the reel (makes storage easier to clip snap on reel line guide).

 

Fly leader 21"- 48"

I'm afraid your question is going to generate a million more questions. Basically, there is no "magical" answer to it. It depends on what you're targeting (e.g. perch vs chinooks), the type of equipment you are using, what time of the year etc.. It boils down to personal preference in the final analysis regarding length, line diameter, pound test needed and even the particular brand used as again personal preference plays a role as well as breaking strength and these lines vary a lot in that regard. As in a lot of things the one size fits them all principle doesn't apply here:).
