Description
Overview
Meet AFW's Bleeding Leader Wire - the world's first blood-red nylon-coated leader designed for serious top-water action. Built on a robust 1x7 stainless steel core, this 90 lb test line runs long at 1000 feet, ready to outfit multiple setups.
Why anglers choose AFW Bleeding Leader
- 7-strand stainless steel core with a durable nylon coating for flexibility and strength
- Blood-red coating creates a visible lure-like trigger in surface breaks
- Red color fades with depth, helping avoid spooking deeper-dwelling fish
- Suitable for all toothy species, from pike to barracuda and muskies
- Pair with standard crimps (size 5 or 6) for secure, high-visibility connections
In real-world water conditions, the blood-red glow can offer top-water drama without compromising the wire's strength. Anglers report feeling confident when casting lipped plugs, poppers, and swimbaits that need a subtle color cue to prompt bites.
How to use
- Thread through the lure eye and crimp with size 5 or 6 sleeves for a secure connection
- Pair with a matching tackle setup designed for toothy predators
- Test different retrieves to gauge how the red coating behaves near the surface
Specifications
- Material: Surflon 1x7 stainless steel wire with nylon coating
- Test: 90 pounds
- Length: 1000 feet
- Color behavior: Red coating attracts at surface, vanishes with depth
Note: While the red coating is designed to create top-water cues, results will vary with water clarity, light, and fish behavior. Consider this as a potential enhancement to your existing setup rather than a guaranteed outcome.
FAQ
Q: What makes AFW Bleeding Leader different from standard nylon-coated leaders?
A: It uses a blood-red nylon coating that attracts at top water and fades with depth, while maintaining a 1x7 stainless steel core for strength.
Q: What fish and setups is this leader best for?
A: Great for toothy species in salt or freshwater; pairs with standard crimps and top-water setups for visible bite cues.
