Product Information
Full details
The Fox Edges Naturals Copper-Core Leaders are designed for serious carp anglers who require a supple yet heavy leader to ensure perfect presentation on the lake bed. Ideal for those prioritizing stealth and functionality, these leaders utilize a unique copper chain link core to achieve a sink rate superior to standard lead-free alternatives. While they offer exceptional performance, users should note that the specialized construction requires careful handling to avoid kinking the internal copper core during transport.

FAQs
What is the breaking strain of the Copper-Core material?
The leaders are constructed using 50lb Copper-Core material, offering high durability for demanding fishing situations.
How many leaders are included in each pack?
Each pack contains three 75cm lengths.
Can I use these leaders in a strictly lead-free water?
Yes, these are designed as lead-free leaders, making them a compliant alternative for waters that prohibit the use of traditional leadcore.
Are the Micro Anti-Tangle sleeves reusable?
Yes, they can be removed and reused, though it is recommended to inspect them for splits before re-attaching.
Does the dark green colour fade over time?
The Naturals finish is highly durable, though it may naturally dull slightly after prolonged exposure to sunlight and lake silt.
Troubleshooting
The leader develops a sharp kink.
Gently massage the kinked area between your fingers to straighten the copper core; avoid pulling forcefully as this can damage the braid.
The leader does not lay flat on the bottom.
Check if there is too much tension on your main line. Slacken the line slightly to allow the leader's natural weight to settle.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up, simply attach your main line to the loop at the leader end using a standard loop-to-loop connection or a strong knot. The pre-attached Kwik Change Swivel allows you to clip your chosen lead system directly onto the leader. When using the Anti-Tangle sleeves, ensure they are seated firmly over the swivel eye to maintain a streamlined profile.
To ensure longevity, keep the leaders stored flat or coiled loosely in your tackle box to prevent the internal copper core from developing sharp kinks. After each session, inspect the outer weave for fraying or damage caused by abrasive surfaces like sharp rocks or zebra mussels. If the outer material shows significant wear, replace the leader to prevent potential snap-offs.
