Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Building Furled Leaders Without Tools.

I started using furled leaders last season and love them. I've only ever furled my own from a single piece of 6lb flouro. I've never had it unravel, although I know that I can do a better job furling my next one. My only complaint is when I have to change tippit. I have to carefully snip off the knot at the loop of the furled leader, always a nervewracking proposition cause if I snip the leader the whole thing is garbage. I just ordered some tippet rings which I'm excited to try on my new homemade furled leaders to try and avoid this problem.

Build one and you will see.  It is not what I was expecting.  If I were fishing for a lot of larger fish with sharp teeth and I had to change leaders often, I might like it.  For my freshwater fishing around here, I will stick with Nylon leaders or standard furled leaders.

I ran across this video on youtube the other day. I have never seen this before, but I gave it a shot and it works great. Has anyone every had these guys unravel during fishing? Seems like an easy and cheap way to build some leaders during the "thunder snow". I was pretty surprised how well it worked.
