Super Simple Two Section Bank Leader

Category: Streamer Leaders
Another extremely simple and short leader for tossing heavy streamers from the bank into a current. Presentation isn't the aim here, but getting the fly out to swing in the current is. The fly weight helps turn the leader over, and the weight typically also calls for a short leader to get control in the cast.

Since you got this far …


The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.

See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.
