Default knotted leaders
In article ,
says...
I have been looking at making hand made leaders and wonder how many roff
members make handmade knotted leaders and are they worth the effort
that it takes to make them?


I do -- if you like fussy, detail oriented manual tasks like flytying or
woodworking, then you might enjoy it. I usually spend an evening or two
in the winter tying up a couple dozen leaders, which is way more than I
need for a season of fishing, even if I give half of them away to
friends. It probably saves me a few bucks, but mostly it gives me
something to do for a couple winter evenings, of which we have a lot
around here.
