Usually on the spot. I'm meticulous about knots, ocd even. I couldnt do that to myself right now. I'd get 10-15 done in a week. If Im not happy with a knot I'm not using it, cut and retie until Im happy with it. If I get a good feeling about that night, or tide etc I'll tie up 3 long leaders and three short leaders, depending on how much give I need to have.

Reason: ai kant spel
usually a few at a time......I like to tie leaders in my garage while waiting for fishing friends to arrive.....fresh knots and it gets me randy to fish....
I just strip 15 feet of braid before i head out and tie one up on the spot. Then replace as needed, i find the storage easier to just bring the line and swivels and breakaways in a pouch.
