I have seen Mr trout set on one of the other post's, they look the business and I would love to try them and think the others would like to give them a try.

Having been a furled leader user for a decade or more ,btw I think Hughie and I were the first UK shop to stock Rod Dibbles furls .I am a big fan of them for my river trouting and autumn /winter grayling ,these days fishing mainly small rivers I use the 3 footers with a similar lenght tippet ,to suit size of fly .
Most of my furls are Dibbles ,but Mr trout does good ones too,including some specials he made up in Nylon for my resser trouting with long multi fly leaders ,now those have been a god send ,improved turn over and reduced tangles .
Cant see me using polyleaders for regular trouting ,good for salmon though .
