Leader Lines

Varivas Tapered Shockleaders - Five leaders per pack
These premium quality Varivas Tapered Shock Leaders are 13 Metres long - 70lb down to 18lb with low stretch and high knot strength.
Tapered shockleaders are a must when performing powerful casts to prevent your line snapping while trying to cast out your lead sinker. These shockleaders are 70lb at the thick end (sinker end) and gradually taper to 18lb at the thin end to match your mainline, leaving you with a nice small joining knot that will fly through your guides with ease.
These are rated the best out of all Tapered Shockleaders available!

Sunline Tapered Leaders for Surfcasting 15m x 5pk
Features:Most nylon will absorb water through microscopic pores in the surface
of the line, when the line dries the salt is left in the line creating a milky
look, this results in hardening of the line and gives it a rough texture.
Sunline products are manufactured using a water repellent resin processing
which produces a stronger, smoother, longer lasting fishing line.

Sunline Tapered leaders are the easiest solution for adding a shock
leader to your surfcasting line.

When joining to your main line it is best
to knot the same diameter lines for best knot strength. There are several
different diameter options with Sunline tapered leaders, but if the leader
is a bit thin to match your main line, just come up the gradual taper
until you find the ideal diameter and trim the leader at that point. Each
spool has 5 x leaders, 15 meters in length.
0.33mm to 0.57mm (16lb to 50lb)
