Old plug Posted May 19, 2016 Posted May 19, 2016 I do not understand the need for a leader in some of the lower test braids. I used 10lb braid on my crappie outfits and have tried it to fish flukes and sinkos. I used the same outfits on Taneycomo for 4 days last year. Never have found a use for a leader.
