furled tenkara lines

[adric]

Has anyone tried to make a forward taper tenkara furled line?

I have just made one but yet to try it as it is too wet even for a grass test.

Any advice on tapers would be interesting.

Paul at Fountainhead has them. www.freewebs.com/fountainheadflyfish/apps/webstore/
Because he sells them I doubt he would share his tapers. He doesn't export, though.

I made a few furled leaders following these instructions.....dead easy.....of course not as easy as buying them

Thanks

I make furled leaders and sell them on ebay. They are all suitable for trout fishing western style.

I am experimenting with tenkara style leaders but have yet to river test any weather and other things have prevented me getting out but hopfully soon.

Sorry Simon, I didn't realize you did weight forward leaders as well. I would have posted a link to you instead.
