I normally use 5 to 6 foot leaders. I feel that gives me a natural presentation from the bank. I have never had a problem missing fish because the leader is to long, nor have I had a problem catching fish with long leaders. I am not flossing.I use too but I used 14 foot leaders for that.

There is definetly a market out there for snaggers so why the heck doesnt the fish and game depo raise the fines ridiculessly and open snagger Zones on hatchery only Terminal fish areas like Hoodsport, and Gorst creek. Would that take the pressure off some of the native stocks? Alaska does it Missouri too!
