Climax Leaders and Tippet
Performance By Design

Every Climax Leader is designed with a stiff butt section to transfer your casting energy progressively down the length of the leader to the tippet section. All leaders are manufactured with high-abrasion resistance, yet supple co-polymer materials, which allow this energy transfer to deliver a quick, powerful turnover and delicate, natural presentation of the fly. Climax Leaders are specifically designed for different species of fish and fishing conditions. These designs give maximum leader performance for specific fishing techniques.

Climax Salmon/Steelhead Leaders

These leaders are designed with heavier butts to turn over larger flies and are made from stiffer material to be more abrasion resistant. They are the only knotless tapered leaders which have unconditionally passed the steelhead tests by our customers and staff. They are also very good for salt water flats fishing.
