Default Furled leader vs. tapered mono

By the way, a braided or braid butt leader, is not the same as a
twined, furled, or twisted ( Singaporean) leader. Braid leaders cause
problems picking up water in the braid, and cause spray and splashing
when casting. Furled leaders of solid material, i.e. Nylon mono, or
Uni thread etc, do not cause the same problems, especially when
treated with the appropriate floatant.
