The product you’re referencing appears to be a Cortland Fairplay Fly Leader, specifically a 4X leader that is 7.5 feet long with a 4.5 lb breaking strength. Here’s a breakdown of the details:
Key Specifications:
– Brand: Cortland
– Model: Fairplay Fly Leaders
– Leader Size: 4X (a common fly-fishing tippet/leader size, typically around 0.007″ diameter)
– Length: 7.5 feet (a standard leader length for freshwater fly fishing)
– Breaking Strength: 4.5 lb (suitable for small to medium trout and other freshwater species)
– Pack Quantity: Likely 10 leaders per pack (based on “10X” in the description)
Best Uses:
– Trout fishing (especially dry flies, nymphs, or small streamers)
– Panfish & small bass (if targeting larger fish, consider a stronger leader)
– Delicate presentations (4X is a good balance between strength and stealth)
Notes:
– 4X leaders are versatile for freshwater fly fishing, but if fishing in heavy cover or for larger fish, you might want a stronger leader (e.g., 2X or 3X).
– Cortland Fairplay leaders are known for affordability and reliability, making them a solid choice for beginners and casual anglers.
