FAQs
Can I use this leader on any water?
While highly effective, always check your venue's specific rules, as some fisheries strictly prohibit the use of leadcore.
How do I ensure the lead drops off if the line breaks?
Ensure the tail rubber is not pushed on too firmly, allowing the lead to eject from the clip if it snags.
What is the best way to attach the main line?
A simple loop-to-loop connection is recommended for maximum strength and ease of use.
Does the colour of the leader matter?
The Brown version is designed to blend into silty or sandy lake beds, while the Green is better suited for weedier bottoms.
How often should I replace the leader?
Replace the leader immediately if you notice fraying, significant abrasions, or if the spliced connections appear weakened.
Troubleshooting
Leader is not laying flat on the bottom
Check for excessive slack in the main line or adjust your lead weight to ensure it pulls the leader down effectively.
Difficulty passing the leader loop through the main line loop
Ensure you are using a standard loop-to-loop knot technique and verify that your main line loop is large enough to accommodate the width of the leader.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your leader, simply use a loop-to-loop connection: pass the leader loop through your main line's loop, then pass the lead clip end of the leader through the main line loop and pull tight. Attach your lead to the Hybrid Lead Clip and secure with the tail rubber. When using this leader, always ensure your main line has an appropriate shock absorber if fishing at long ranges. After each session, inspect the spliced connections for signs of wear. If the leadcore appears frayed or the outer sheath has parted from the inner core, replace the leader to maintain maximum strength. Store your leaders out of direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
