[font "Times New Roman"]Where can I get 1lb test? [/font]
[font "Times New Roman"] [/font]
[font "Times New Roman"]I am learning to make my own furled leaders (which I cant wait to get on the water) but I can only find 2lb at best. I like the way the leader turns over when I cast (in the yard that is) but the end that the tip it would attach to is 6 strands thick (that’s 12lb breaking point not that I needed to say that). That seems a little on the heavy side to attach my tip it to. No? I was thinking if I could get a hold of some 1lb then I could get it down to the 6 lb range. I figured that would transfer to a thin (2# to 4#) tip it better [/font]
