Finally Figured A Great Way To Store My Pre-Tied Leaders!

I was tired of storing my leaders coiled in 3's in small zip lock bags....big pain in the a$$ and leader wallets did not look as if they would meet my needs, so here is my solution! A spool of 50# flouro.....I like my leaders 3' long....25 yards gave me about 23 leaders.....tied them all up, swivels on one end/breakaways on the other and then clip them together and wind them back on the spool. Not all fit, maybe only about 15 but it works great and easy to get them out with no tangles!

Send that idea into SW sportsman mag. If they use it in their mag, you get a free shimano Thunnus baitrunner reel..(value about 220 bucks ). They use a lot of stuff that is sent in.

That is a great idea, very practical.
