Default Leaders?

I use a 5 ft leader on my sinking lines. Seems to work for me. 9ft on
floating lines.

Using nylon leaders, I have had the occasion, that I am counting
my sinking line down, and I look out and see that my fly is still

floating
on the surface.


When you use a sinking line, you should use a very short leader in order

to
avoid the situation you describe above.
