Question about loop leaders?

Bingo. I'll add two more complaints about loops:

(1) No matter how small you make the loops, there will be a section of
the leader with twice the density of the rest of the leader. This can't
be good for delicate casting and presentation.

(2) Once the loops are snugged up into a square knot, I find it just as
difficult and time consuming to change loop connections as it is to tie
a blood knot in heavy mono, if not more so.


Only a putz would have trouble with presentation using a loops. And only a
putz would have trouble changing a loop to loop.

Of course, ymmv.

Ah, still the same old sweet natured Dave LaCourse. What's the matter,
Dave? Haven't you had your butt kissed enough lately?

No, indeed, I'm not. But then I'm not indebted to you, which is just
about the worst thing that can happen to someone, because you're a fat,
incredibly stupid, egotistical, bloodsucking piece of ****, with bad
feet and too much money. Like when you lured Warren to Penns, assuring
him that it would all be "covered," and then you hit him up for 200
bucks for the room, knowing that he was flat broke, and despite the fact
that you kept him awake every night with your brobdingnagian fat-man
snoring. Yes, I've heard all about that. Asshole.

Now that was in rather poor taste. I imagine that Warren confided in you, expecting
that you wouldn't use his unpleasant experience to your own benefit--YMMV?
