I can live with 10feet, maybe 14  but there are guys at peg leg using at least 20' feet maybe more!  Woow! i am surprised that someone hasnt been snagged in the face!  How do u control 20'  I find it tough with ten especially with guys standing 3-5' away from each other!

[Fish Assassin]

You got to be kidding me ! 20' ? What do they do, use a slingshot to shoot it out ?

[FLYallAROUND]

i use 3-7 feet anything longer i feel its to unsafe! ive come close to snagging myself a few times when i tried out a 12 foot leader.

not that i go and snag fish but it is easy to cast 20 +' just tie the corky off the tag end of the hook and it keeps the hook floating...i used to go sockeye snaging

I bet the 20' guys don't catch any more than the 10'guys.  Whats next 30'

[pepsitrev]

20ft now thats a real good one. i tell ya that guy ahad better watch that thing as hes sure to snag some poor fisherman. using one that long is surely a sign of a inexperienced fisherman and that if they continue to use ones that long there could be leader restrictions in the futer

[The Gilly]

Funny how us regular flosser get upset about longer leaders ;)TIC

I have seen a guy last year that has such a long leader, when he hooked up, he had to walk up the bar, to get the fish out the water, cause his betty was up against the rod... it must have been way longer than 20FT... When he cast the monster out, it sounder like a whip.

too bad the hook did'nt imbed itself in his skull when he cast out his 30 foot leader...........

I was trying to figure out the path of the hook when you cast with a leader. Does anyone know which direction it would go? If its behind you about ten feet and you cast overhand does it follow the swing of the rod? or does it snap straight out when it grabs? What if it's beside you? or under you? Different lengths change the path? and blah blah on and on? <--- too many different scenarios to mention. Insight please.
