Braided leaders comes in different with loads of different sinking/floating
properties. I dont like the braided leaders. My experience is poor
performance compared to selftapered (and even most pretapered leaders), high
cost and low lifespan. If you leaders tend to hit a lot of rocks and trees
when catsing in tight places, as they do when I fish in tricky hard(almost
impossible)-to-cast areas, the braided leaders tend to wear out quite fast.
I only use Flourocarbon leaders now. Either pretapered with a tippet og self
tapered all the way. After I tried flourocarbon tippet material, I've never
even thought about going back to normal mono.

Braided leaders last a long time (until hung up in a tree). They are also very
easy to put on.

Personally I do not like them because they make a splash when they hit the
surface that typically scares away all the trout!
