I noticed that in...

Re: Streamer leader formulas
The ultra-thin blank walls appearing these days are a treat to cast all day and have interesting casting characteristics, but they're awfully tender to bumps and bruises, especially on boats.

Re: Streamer leader formulas
Don’t buy any. I’ll send you some stuff to see if you like it. I think you’ll like it. Although if you buy it you’ll have it long before I get home. Sometimes I forget what my house looks like! And my wife!!!
