Umpqua Perform X are knotless tapered nylon leaders designed to ensure a perfect blend of power (heavy butt & strong taper) and delicacy (perfect tippet length.) Pre-looped. Each leader is 7.5ft (specify X size when ordering), 1 leader per pack.
Key Features
-
Premium nylon for strength and flexibility
-
Smooth, hydrophobic coatings for water resistance and consistent performance
-
Tapered design for effortless fly turnover
-
Ready-to-fish with pre-tied perfection loop
-
Ideal for trout, panfish, bluegill and generally any freshwater streams. We have even recommended the 2X when smallmouth fishing on the Shenandoah River.
While we prefer our Murray's Hand Tied Knotted Leaders (because we feel they cast better), we realize that not every angler is the same--hence the reason we carry some knotless leaders. These are great all around leaders and easy to connect to any fly line and use.
