They're are tradeoffs with different situations. Unless you're tying on a shock leader instead of tippet to the leader strength shouldn't be one of them.
Try the furled leader in different situations. I think you have that 6 ft 2 wt rod. If you're having issues there be sure to start with a shorter leader than you would with a 9 ft rod. Try a 6 ft leader and as you get comfortable you can increase the length if needed. Frequently even 6 ft is plenty of stealth on small streams with spooky fish.With all my rods 7 ft and under I cast 7 and a half ft leaders or less 99% of the time.
