The other weekend when I was up at the Salmon river I purchased a salmon leader with a tapered end and tried it out. After a couple of casts I realized that my bait was not getting into the strike zone as fast as the homemade leader taper combo. Last weekend I attached 5' of Vanish Gold 10lb. to the leader and did not get any strikes or pickups the whole day. I did not snag bottom at anytime even when I weighted the presentation. Was it just not my day to hook any fish? The weather was cold and cloudy for the most part. "What's in your thoughts?"
