Default Does anyone build their own leaders?

IMO, FC leaders are a total waste of money. I also think the

Until it works for you . . . .


I've caught fish on FC tippet, and I've caught fish on mono tippet. It
doesn't seem to make any difference to me.

Here's what I think happens. Someone goes fishless for awhile and, in
desperation, tries FC. Then he catches a fish. Eureka! FC is suddenly
the greatest thing ever invented. It never occurs to the poor chump that
maybe he was just due.

The same thing happens with flies.
