Looking at various threads of late on leaders. Knots used.to fly line , tippet.so forth. I find it puzzling, the amount of people that tie tippets to leaders. And therefore cut back leaders changing tippet.
For years I've used loop connections. Line to leader, leader to tippet. No shortening of any line or no waste. This aside from it being the fastest way of changing leader or tippet. Also allowing for sink sections of line added. A few of what I see as advantages.
For those that tie tippet to leader. Cut back tippets till changing then cut back leader. Do you find something advantageous in doing so ? And how often are new leaders needed ?
