Fluorocarbon Leader Material vs. Regular Fluorocarbon Line
Word on the street is that line sold as "leader material" is tougher than line sold to fill a spool.
I've been looking at the line diameters of expensive flurocarbon leader material and comparing it to much cheaper flurocarbon line sold on big spools. Berkley vanish: Model No. Diameter (in) Pound Test Yards Color Price VPS4-15 (1053992) 0.007 4 110 Clear $5.99 VPS6-15 (1010821) 0.009 6 110 Clear $5.99 Berkley vanish leader material: VLM4-15 (1071681) 0.009 4 50 Clear $9.99 VLM6-15 (1071682) 0.010 6 50 Clear $9.99 So 6lb berkley vanish spool line is equivalent to 4lb berkley vanish leader material. No wonder it's tougher! Unless the actual composition of the line is different, this'll save us a lot of money. |
