DRY FLY SLACK LINE LEADER: Nothing is more imporatant in dry fly fishing than your leader and its presentation. Our CastMax Target Dry Fly Slack Leaders are designed and tied to land in 'S-curves' in the butt section and more in swirls in the thinnner tippet section. In order to get the longest drag-free drift, you want this slack in the leader as it lands on the water, and most importantly in the thinner termination section. When cast properly, these leaders will not straighten out, but land in serpentine curves. The pre-set slack sections now can get pulled and straightened downstream with as little drag as possible by varying currents. This also minimizes the need for mending. Our specialized CastMax Target Dry Fly Slack leaders are tied in 7 sections, beginning with a .017 butt and terminating at the ring in 4x, for the most precise taper and presentation. Leader diameters are much thinner in the butt sections than commercial tapered leaders which gives you more control and more delicate presentations. The butt sections are stiffer Maxima Chameleon for best turnover and distance, while the most critical thinner termination sections are of softer Maxima Ultragreen mono. Total length is 9'. Designed for use with 3wt -5wt fly lines.
NYMPH LEADER: Our CastMax Target Nymph / Wet Fly Leaders are designed to turnover fast, efficiently, and get your flies down deep and quickly after landing, whether you are using a weighted rig or a non-weighted presentation. Our specialized CastMax Target Nymph / Wet Fly leaders are tied in 4 sections, beginning with a .020 butt and terminating at the ring in 4x. Leader diameters are much thinner in the butt sections than commercial tapered leaders which gives you more control and more delicate presentations. The butt sections are stiffer Maxima Chameleon for best turnover and distance. Total length is 9'. Designed for use with 3wt -6wt fly lines.
STREAMER LEADER: Our CastMax Target Streamer Leaders are designed to turnover fast, efficiently, and get your flies down deep and quickly after landing, whether you are using a weighted rig or a non-weighted presentation. Since some streamers can be weighty, a gradual taper transition is critical over the length of the leader to provide for good loops and perfect turnover. Our specialized CastMax Target Streamer leaders are tied in 8 sections, beginning with a .021 butt and terminating at the ring in 3x, for the most precise taper and presentation. Leader diameters are much thinner in the butt sections than commercial tapered leaders which gives you more control and more delicate presentations. The butt sections are stiffer Maxima Chameleon for best turnover and distance, while the most critical thinner sections are of softer Maxima Ultragreen mono. Total length 7.5'. Designed for use with 4wt - 8wt fly lines.
All of our CastMax Leaders are tied with a perfection loop in the butt section for quick tie-on.
