How far have you got to chuck it

Further than I'm capable of hence the need to max out every bit. Before people say casting lessons, I've done that and used to go to a few tournaments but fact is I'm old and don't have the strength or agility I used to and have carpletunnel arthritis in my left hand.

Have you considered the heavier tapered casting leaders used in sea angling. They cast well and 60lb mono should cope with any snags. I use them in bright colours on one of my spod rods for ease and reliability. After 40 years of trying, stuff braid. They are readily available in clear mono.

Yes and the tapered lines from fox and korda.

Used the daiwa tapered leaders on and off tough as old boots, 15lb to 40lb cut to size but not answering your question

This looks interesting, not cheese wire thin, anyone tried it, would like to know if it fades much over time.
