Well, I never want be be tying Leaders & rigs & such between May & Dec. when the game is on!...
So I'm always using 1- 2 yr. old Leader/ snaps/ knots-- again: no knot failures yet in a LONG time! Only down- side is that my friends know my supply habits... & hit me up for Leaders like many do for Marlboros!
I tie 75- 150 leaders of all types (some w/ just plain snap... some swivel & Eel- hook... some w/ teaser & snap combos., etc.) every Winter... Just to ensure I'm not wasting time tying "in- season..."
BD, I've spent my surfcasting career avoiding/ neglecting the braid revolution so far... & I'm not changing now!
