    Product Testers Needed for Leader Materials

    Hey guys we have been working with a company to produce leader coils for Canyon Lures. We have 4 diameters right now and hopefully will be expanding further if all comes back ok.

    But first we would like to see what other fishermen have to say. So we are looking for some guys to fish these leaders and give us their feedback - so we can make some decisions.

    The following is what we currently have for testing:
    200lb test - estimated break strength 315lbs - diameter 1.5MM
    250lb test - estimated break strength 425lbs - diameter 1.7MM
    300lb test - estimated break strength 500lbs - diameter 1.9MM
    400lb test - estimated break strength 550lbs - diameter 2.0MM

    All are light blue in color

    I am only able to send out 3 leader coils per pound test for right now(i.e. 3 - 200lb, 3 - 250lb, etc.), so just let me know what pound test you would like to try - or multiple sizes. But please only serious requests as we really need good solid feedback.

    Thanks

    All guys above - no problem just make sure to PM contact information.

    Have all other sizes still available for testing except for 200lb.

    Hoping to get some in the 100-125lb test done in the near future

    So we have had several different people testng some of the leader materials that we are planning to begin selling.

    Here is some feedback from Rob Barker

    ____________
    Murph,

    The 400# test leader you sent me is doing great. I have re- rigged some of my horse/illander baits on this material. I'm rigging all my spanish on them as well. It very soft and handles great. I have yet to catch a slob on it yet, but as soon as i do I'll let you know. Thanks for a good product.

    We will keep everyone posted and these leaders should be available shortly barring any major issues. Thanks.
