Hi Jemo, there's been quite a few recent threads on this on here but try this one:

do these homemade leader dimentions sound ok ?

You could try these as a starter but maybe make them a bit longer to suit still water work: Dry Fly 'Expert': Leader linguistics, tippet talk and tips...

Unless you're fishing very 'skinny water' "we" just follow the old "60-20-20" formula. Used to make up co-poly leaders and it could take 20 minutes going down all the digressions.

For the most part a total waste of time to get much more complicated than that.

HI Jemo

there is a good article in this months Trout and Salmon by Dennis Moss called "leaders for dry-flies" well worth a look.
