The right line ensures correct casting and presentation, while the leader is the last and most crucial link between the fisherman and the fish.

For sea trout on the coast , intermediate lines with fluorocarbon leaders are a strong choice. For trout and trout in streams, floating lines with tapered nylon leaders are the obvious choice. If you are fishing deeper for pike or rainbow trout in the lake, sinking lines and stronger leaders are best. For salmon in rivers, poly leaders are a flexible solution.
