Maxima makes excellent leaders although some do not like the flat versions.
When tying a leader support the last section in your hand and study the
curve. If it sags radically it will not likely support the next section when
it turns over during the cast. Formulas come and go and each manufacturer
varies so this was the simplest and most reliable way that I used in my own
book to describe it. It ain;t perfect but it works. Give it a try.

Leader formulae? How many do you want? grin

It's heavily under construction, but the leader pages are complete...
