Tapered fly leaders with loops for easy connection to your fly line.
A five-pack of clear nylon tapered fly leaders from Bozeman FlyWorks in 5X, with a built-in loop at the butt end for quick on-and-off connection to your fly line. The pack mixes 9, 7.5 and 12 foot lengths, so you can match the leader to small streams or open water. A handy stock of spares for anglers who change leaders often.
