AIRFLO POLY LEADERS (Great cost saving item)

Polyleaders can be likened to a mini sink tip system in a range of different densities from floating to fast sink, they are a fine tapered extension to your line which are attached loop to loop, no knots,
thus they are easily changed.

At the end of the Polyleader you attach 4 or 5ft of normal leader material. If you are using a floating line and wish to fish deeper without changing your line simply fit a sinking model. They do not hinge or interfere with
casting, in fact they allow for straighter presentation of the fly.
Very popular product. Poly Leaders

To avoid cutting back each time you attach tippets we tie a tiny ring
(SEE NEXT ITEM - Leader Rings) to polyleader end and tie the tippet
to this, in this way a leader could last several seasons use.

Type:

Trout 5'	Trout 10'
Salmon 5'	Salmon 10'	Strong Salmon 10'

Density:

Clear Floating	Clear Hover	Intermediate
Slow Sinking	Fast Sinking	Super Fast Sink

GUIDELINE:

There are various ways of connecting a leader to the fly line, most popular being to fit a leader loop to
the line tip, once the loop is fitted you can connect a normal leader or a poly leader with a loop to loop joint.
You can also use Eyelets or cast connectors or the above knotless joints.
