How he does them for the price is beyond me, all the time and effort it takes, I guess he just enjoys making the leaders.

I do know Steven and have used his leaders on and off for a couple of years, if you are thinking about trying a furled leader these really are the ones, a search on google or e-bay will back up what I've said.

Tip... stick with them for a trip or two, they do fish better after a couple of outings and it will take time to adjust to how a furled leader feels & fishes..

I've seen his production line on a recent visit to the North. The furled leaders are hand rolled by girls on their thighs. I sneaked a photo of one of his production lassies in her specially designed clothing when he wasn't looking. Getting staff to do the six foot leaders is a bit of a problem - apparently only the Slavs are leggy enough and the Home Office is getting a bit prissy about handing out work-visas.

I've been tryimg to set up a production line like that but apparently they don't like the climate here in the Vale of Evesham.

And I can't get the Tattie Pot and Whig Rolls to feed them.

sadly,

Andy

The second burd down's casting technique is all to cock; she'll never catch a fish like that.















Obviously she needs a casting lesson
