TRADITIONAL tapered furled leaders are made from quality thread. They enable the precise placement of artificial fly to the location you want. For better floating it needs to be lubricated before use. Long before carbon fibre, WF lines, and perfectly engineered rods, fly fishing was pure magic—just a human, a bit of thread, and a few feathers picked up along the river. Our great-grandfathers tied their flies by hand, with no tools, relying on instinct rather than rules. Every cast was a small prayer. Bamboo rods were heavy, lines were coarse, leaders were made of thread, but the heart raced every time a silver shadow appeared under the surface. The FR Traditional leader is designed in the spirit of that era. Made from thread that’s abrasion-resistant and durable even under sunlight, modern materials make this leader strong and long-lasting. Choose between the two lengths (1.8 m, 2.1 m) depending on your style and fishing conditions—and remember to apply floatant before fishing for best performance.
