How many leaders do you pre-tie for the season?
How many leaders do you have tied for the upcoming season.
I hit 150 last night. 2 more spools of FC more to go for boat leaders.
I used/gave away close to 200 last season.
I tie a bunch of different setups, store them in individual plastic bags and label w/length, weight and hook size (if applicable). Assembly line production, cut a dozen leaders, add terminal tackle, trim and bag. Saves time and my rigs come out better if I do one step at a time for the batch. I also tie surf leaders w/snap or bait hook at terminal end of variable lengths, no swivel.
Next task is bucktail/hackle/flash teasers to replace rear tail hooks on plugs. As well as 6 dozen flies/teasers.
The projects keep my mind on fishing and illusions of grandeur anticipating the 8 months of Stripers.
Spring is just around the corner!
