Field Notes

Use these pre-tied safety leaders when catfishing around snags, rough structure, or fish with abrasive mouths. The tapered design lets you protect the hook end while still forcing a controlled breakoff if the rig hangs up, helping you save the rest of your setup. Trim to the length you want and connect the thicker end to the hook and the lighter end to the main line.
