How is a furled leader different from a tapered mono leader?

0

Did you ever notice when casting an ordinary mono leader, that the leader, tippet and fly often end up in big pile at the end of the cast? That’s because a mono leader does an inadequate job of “turning over” the tippet and fly. This happens even more often when casting into a head wind. And casting into a side wind with a mono leader is a hopeless adventure. Our furled tapered leaders provide a beautiful balance of mass to length, thus driving the fly to the target with authority. Your casts will turn over every time. Because our furled tapered leader has such an efficient transfer of power, it can cast very long tippets and is effective turning over large or small flies. Furled leaders are much easier to use and more economical than mono leaders.
