Field
Testing
We tested the A-EX leader at a pond
in Perak casting lures for toman (giant
snakehead). Being a soft leader, lure
management was also easier. I was using
a variety of lures from poppers, to
walkers, and to crank baits and I used a
25lb A-EX leader. They all did well and
I hooked up a few tomans.
Being soft lines they have one other
weak point and that is abrasion. The
A-EX can handle some abrasion but
not as much as stiffer thicker leaders
can.
