The boondoggers in boats on the Cowlitz have a reason for using a 6 foot leader.....it's necessary to get the proper presentation as you drift downstream. There's no reason to go longer than 3 or 4 feet when bankfishing. The ONLY reason to do it is to floss. If you think I'm wrong, then explain to me why a leader more than 4 feet is needed for bankfishing, and I'll retract my statement.

They're flossers, I'll tell ya, flossers! laugh
