Scandic Coastal nylon leader

Fly fishing for sea trout on the coast in Scandinavia is a very sought-after sport and it is getting more and more popular over the years. Since this particular form of fishing is done in saltwater with no or very little current, the leader must be subtle – giving the fly as much movement/freedom in the water as possible and yet, having the breaking strength to fight a strong fresh sea trout.

An important property in a scandic saltwater leader is the mass (air and weight resistance), which will ensure that the speed is reduced from the upper line gradually before the fly lands on the water.

For line wt. 12 g/185 gr to 16 g/247 gr

If using small saltwater flies (i.e. single hooks sizes 8 – 12 and smaller), then add 0.50 meters of 0.26 mm tippet material to reach a total maximum length of 4.0 meters.

If using larger saltwater patterns or weighted flies (i.e. single hooks sizes 6 – 10), then use the leader as it is so that the total maximum length is 3.5 meters.
