Airflo
Airflo Tactical Copolymer Fly Fishing Tapered Leaders
It’s not often new leaders turn up in the market place but Airflo has made a couple of small tweaks to the existing range and introduce the new Tactical leaders. Made from ultra high quality Japanese co-polymer, these low diameter tapered leaders offer incredible strength and are completely clear. Looped at the butt end for extra easy attachment to your fly line, these great new leaders are good to go right out of the packet. With Airflo’s unique taper design, these leaders have plenty of power in the butt section to turnover your flies with precision, for each and every cast you make. Also available in a handy 3 pack.

For nearly 70 years, the majority of fly lines have been made from PVC – a naturally rigid plastic that requires the use of plasticisers to make PVC lines functional. These plasticisers are anything but a permanent part of a PVC line. You see, from the minute it’s made, a PVC line begins breaking down - leaching plasticisers into the environment and contaminating you and the waters you fish. Once it has shed enough of these, it becomes prone to cracking, even failure. If that’s not enough, as it decomposes, PVC is known to release Dioxins - a group of lethal, bioaccumulating toxins. Consequently, it’s virtually impossible to safely recycle a PVC line. All of which is why Airflo never uses PVC. Instead, our lines are made from Polyurethane - an inert, stable, fully recyclable material that requires no plasticisers and lasts far longer than PVC.
