VARIVAS Yamame Flat-butt Leaders

Featured in last month’s Trout and Salmon Magazine - these really are amazing! They are the latest innovation in tapered leaders – with the sole aim of providing the fly-fisher with even more delicate presentation and ideal turn-over.
VARIVAS Yamame Leaders are 12ft long with a unique profile - 55% butt and a gradual taper over 28% with a relatively short point of 17%, they are available in 4X  5X  6X and 7X, and are ideal for use with the dry flies used on chalk streams.
Their unique flat butt gives additional suppleness for ease of knotting – the yellow-coloured butt and taper make these leaders highly visible to the fly-fisher while maintaining stealth with a clear point section.  Produced from pure nylon, they are supple from butt to point and have no memory, making them ideal for delicate presentation.
For a low profile connection leader to fly line use one of our finest Marryat Braided Loops (2-5wt or 5-8wt) and tie the leader to the loop using a clinch or improved clinch knot.  This will reduce the “slurp” as you lift off the water to cast and makes hinging at the loop impossible!

You can buy them on line at Lakeland Flytying (www.lakelandflytying.com) or Fly Fishing Tackle (www.fly-fishing-tackle.co.uk)
