IZORLINE LEADER COILS
Izorline has been quietly broadening and improving their offerings. I'm really only scraping the top off the barrel in terms of their full product line - (but, the stuff I do stock is certainly the cream). We do a lot of rigging, preparing lures for fishing various conditions and targeting a wide range of fish. We're not cheap, we use quality components, and we take time to do things right. Without a doubt we've tried lots of leader material. The majority of the lures we rig are made up using Izorline's leader material. It is our mono leader of choice. Izorline's leader coils have a lot of qualities we've come to appreciate. Izorline's leader material is very pliant, has the least memory of the lines I've used, and doesn't cost an arm and a leg. They produce both a clear and blue leader, in 50 yard coils. This is the best value in leader material available when you consider both quality and value, the quality is superb. 80 lb. 100 lb. 130 lb. 150lb. 200lb. 300lb. 400lb.

IZORLINE FLUOROCARBON LEADER COILS
Izor's Fluorcarbon leader is 100% FL, not a coated line. It's packed in shorter spools than PLine's product, so simple price comparisons aren't quite fair. I've used both products now, and I can honestly say that I like 'em both. Maybe with some more time I can come to a conclusion about which is best, but at this point I'm simply a fan of both. Fluorocarbon line will improve your chances of getting picked up under many fishing circumstances. That's the consensus of opinion by both the long range fisherman and even folks focusing on freshwater species. The lighter lines have really been getting a lot of attention by the fly fishermen for leader material (altghough we're talking 2-4# lines). The products very well proven. Try it, you'll like it.

In our way of thinking these are a luxury purchase for most of us. But, if you're running heavier line, especially the case for abraison reasons (like the 2005 Cow Circus held off Mag. Bay by the long range boats in November...) the use of 135-150# mono was required. A long topshot would never have worked with the sardine bait, and the termination connections were too large for a lot of the roller-guide rods used. So, the loop system was a great alternative and it was VERY reliable with no fish lost because of connections.

BlackWater
NEW - Heavy 80-130# Fluorocarbon Leader NOW In Stock!
In 2007 BlackWater created a big splash at the Long Beach Fred Hall Show, introducing a new Spectra product and innovative fluorocarbon leader. Blackwater International is the U.S. Agent for Toray (the number one selling and most technologically advanced manufacturer of fishing line in Japan). Blackwater offers some innovative products for serious long range anglers. Their Fluorocarbon material is something to get a bit excited over! In the past FL lines have all shared a few characteristics, they were stiff and offered very low stretch. Well, there are times when a bit of stretch is something desired, and times when it's not. One thing for sure, when you've got a large fish on the other end of your line, a bit of stretch can be a welcomed shock absorber. This is especially noticeable when you're fishing Spectra. Over the past couple years we've seen some of the better anglers using shorter and shorter topshots for their rail rigs. Fishing live bait with a short topper offers less resistance in the water, the bait doesn't have to swim as hard, presents itself much more naturally. That gets a guy bit. But, if you're trying to run straight fluorocarbon leader from your spectra the lack of stretch is a disadvantage for a couple reasons. You loose the shock absorber, you also run a risk of pulling the hook more often. It's good to have a little give, not too much mind you, but a little. You'll also notice that their FL line ties a pretty good knot. Again, a touch of stretch can improve knot strength. Blackwater's Shock Leader achieves this characteristic, and by so doing offers anglers an advantage. Blackwater Shock Leader 100% Fluorocarbon Leader Super Clear High Abrasion Resistance Great Knot Strength Lower Visibility Faster Sink Rate than nylon Excellent UV Protection HIGH RATE OF ELONGATION!
