The choice of tapered leader used for fly fishing can be based on the size of the target fish or the size of the fly. Fly fishing sometimes involves using a midge fly with a total length of about 5mm to catch fish over 50cm long. In that case, prioritize letting the fly flow naturally and use a delicate 6X or 7X. We also recommend that you have a variety of thicknesses/lengths to deal with various situations.
