Trout Nylon Leader
Umpqua itself describes its Perform X nylon as the holy grail in terms of performance - raw strength and resilience, yet supple at the same time. The three-layer construction gives this new nylon unique material properties. A core layer provides the right blend of strength and suppleness to present your fly perfectly and accurately, while providing the break resistance needed to land hard-fighting fish. The hydrophobic coating ensures that the nylon does not absorb water throughout the day, resulting in weaker knots and overall lower tensile strength in competitor materials. The third layer is a continuous coating that creates a smoother, more consistent and reliable surface.
The leader material is tapered without knots and has perfect unwinding properties to deliver your fly, whether dry, nymph or wet, accurately and smoothly to the target.
The advantages of nylon:
- Is softer and more flexible than fluorocarbon
- Nylon has excellent knot strength
- Floats high on the surface, ideal for dry fly fishing
- More elastic than fluorocarbon
- Common knots can be used with good results
- Attractively priced
