SNOWBEE CAMO TAPERED LEADERS (PACKS OF 3) - from Barbless Flies.
These 9' leaders start with the high stretch Camo coloured section, tapering to a clear tip. Designed purposely for dry fly and light nymph fishing, providing maximum stretch to absorb the harshest of takes on the finest of stealthy light tippets.
We have these SNOWBEE Camo leaders in 9ft lengths only.
Please Note: Each leader is only available in packs of 3, in sizes 4X, 5X & 6X.
Specification of the leaders and their profiles can be seen in the table below:

| 9ft | 4X | 0.18 | 6.0lb |
| 9ft | 5X | 0.15 | 4.1lb |

Tapered Leader to Fly Line Connections:
Most fly lines now come with a welded loop at the tip, we find the best way to attach your tapered leader is to tie a perfection loop (click here for tying instructions) in the butt end of your leader, and then use a loop-to-loop connection to attach it to your fly line. This way has the added advantage that should you wish to change your leader (for a longer/shorter/thinner one), then it's simply a case of loop-to-loop connecting the new leader.
Should your fly line not already have a welded loop on the tip, then our favourite way to attach a tapered leader is with a needle knot (click here for a fantastic demo of the Needle Knot).
