Product information "Umpqua Deceiver HD Linville's Tactical Flats Leader 12 ft Pink Tip"
The Umpqua Deceiver HD leaders and tippets are thoughtfully designed from start to finish and tailored to their specific applications. Not only in terms of length and strength, but especially in material composition and properties, these fluorocarbon leaders are optimized for their intended niche. This makes them perfect for targeting big fish in both saltwater and freshwater environments.
Deceiver HD Linville's Fluorocarbon Leader PINK
Nathaniel Linville, a tournament angler and fly shop owner in Key West, prefers a leader that is simple, strong, and effective! The knotless tapered Deceiver HD Bonefish fluorocarbon leaders are made from 100% fluorocarbon. These drawn leaders feature a special taper that allows for clean presentations even in strong wind and with weighted or bushy fly patterns – with a fast sink rate and near invisibility.
Like any other FC, Umpqua’s fluorocarbon offers two major advantages: First, it has a refractive index similar to that of water, making fluorocarbon leaders nearly invisible underwater. This often gives them an edge over traditional nylon (monofilament) leaders in crystal-clear water. Second, fluorocarbon sinks slightly, whereas nylon floats. Because of this – and due to its higher abrasion resistance – FC is a popular choice in areas where rocks or other structures pose a risk during the fight.
Pink Leader:
Sounds strange at first, but it has a big advantage! Pink leader material becomes nearly invisible in shallow water under bright sunlight – even more so than clear leader. So, when it comes to catching challenging fish like permit, bonefish, and the like, the new pink leader is definitely worth a try!
