knotted leaders

Yes, I'd say so. Unrealistically fast, IMO. I can tie-up a leader in about 10 or so minutes, I guess. I've never actually timed myself. I measure and cut a number of tippet lengths that I figure on tyin', and then tie. I don't doubt a person can tie them up faster than myself. I feel that the blood knot is the strongest and straightest tie for leaders. I don't know this to be a fact, it's just my opinion. FYI, the surgeon's knot tests stronger than the blood knot. -- Cut "to the chase" for my email address.
