I purchased a 3-pack Umpqua 9' 5x Trout Taper Leaders over the
weekend which is marked 5 lb on the package. Wondering if this is a
printing mistake. Didn't realize it until I got home. The tip Dia is
still .006" and the butt dia is still .021", but the rating is now 5
lb. instead of 4 lb. I have one leader in a package from a previous
purchase that says 5x 4 lb. The Umpqua website still says 5x 4 lb.

Are you sure you didn't purchase the SuperFlouro?

Yes, I'm positive, I never use Flouro leaders and plus the package is
completely different.
I'm just wondering if Umpqua is now rating their 5x Trout Tapered Leaders as
a 5 lb. which is actually better for me since I like to go one size up on
the tippet.
fwiw,
