:-)... does that mean I am right that the last chart is one that is used to create your own leaders.. [
]
..plus you taught me a long time ago that 3x is the largest I should go and 5x the samllest.. but the most of the flies I would use would fall in the 3x or 4x range...
now with that in mind.. wasnt there a quick formula you used to tippet to fly size.. something like the size of the fly divided by 3 and the answer would tell you what size tippet to use..
i.e. # 6 or #8 fly would use a 2x tippet for example (but is better to round up to 3x).. whereas a #12 fly would use a 4x tippet..
