Hi chaps,
Just bought myself some tackle to start fly fishing (Greys GRX 9'6" 6/7 and Scierra IC3)and have been advised to start with 6lb maxima clear for leaders. I have no reason to doubt this but was wondering when you would use a tapered leader and/or a tippet?
Any basic guidelines on leaders/tippets would be most welcome.
I should probably mention that I will be starting on small/medium stillwaters.
