When I put leader on a line it is mainly for bubble and a fly set up. I use 8 lb test on my reel then take 6 lb test for the leader. I hold the line in one hand and the spool in the other then spread my arms wide. This gives me about 6 feet of leader. I then tie a fly to it and attach it to a snap swivel. Behind the swivel (a size 7 swivel) is a clear bubble filled with water. This gives me the weight I need to cast my woolly bugger out to the trout. So set up is as follows: bubble, #7 swivel, leader, woolly bugger. Works great! Also used same set up with needle fish spoons.
