FAQs
How long are these leaders?
These leaders are specifically designed to be 50cm in length, which is an ideal length for pinning down the critical area near the rig.
Are these legal to use on all waters?
While generally accepted, some commercial fisheries have specific rules regarding leadcore. Always check your venue's rules before use.
Can I use these with chod rigs?
While designed for ring swivels, they can be adapted for various setups, though a dedicated chod leader might be more suitable for that specific presentation.
How many leaders come in a pack?
Each pack contains three ready-tied leaders.
Is the green color suitable for all lakebeds?
The green finish is ideal for silty, weedy, or darker bottoms, helping the rig blend into the natural environment.
Troubleshooting
The leader is kinking after storage
Gently pull the leader through your fingers to straighten the lead wire before casting.
Loop-to-loop connection is stiff
Ensure the main line loop is small and neatly seated within the leader loop for a smooth transition.
Difficulty threading the line
Use a dedicated baiting needle to guide the main line through the spliced loop if necessary.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Saves significant time on the bank compared to tying your own leaders.
- Extremely durable construction resists fraying and snags.
- Fast-sinking properties ensure the line stays hidden from wary fish.
- Compatible with a wide range of standard lead systems.
Cons
- Leadcore material can kink if stored improperly.
- Fixed length may not suit every specific long-range casting scenario.
- The inherent weight of the leadcore can make it slightly more difficult to cast at extreme distances.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To attach the leader to your main line, use a simple loop-to-loop connection. Ensure you test the knot integrity before casting. When integrating with your terminal tackle, slide your lead system onto the ring swivel ensuring the swivel eye moves freely. After each session, inspect the leadcore for any signs of fraying, particularly near the swivel connection. To maintain the life of the leader, avoid bending it sharply at any point, as this can create permanent kinks in the inner lead wire. When not in use, store the leaders loosely coiled rather than folded.
