The Umpqua Deceiver HD leaders and tippets are well thought-out leader materials from A to Z and tailored to their respective purpose. These fluorocarbon leaders are optimized for their intended niche, not only in terms of length and strength, but above all in terms of material composition and properties. Specially designed for fishing for GT, tarpon and other tropical giants, the HD Saltwater Shock fluorocarbon is a first-class choice and a material you can rely on 100%.
Deceiver HD Saltwater Shock
The Deceiver HD Saltwater Shock Tippet from Umpqua is made from 100% fluorocarbon and is suitable for both fresh and salt water. The three-layer construction of this material gives it a particularly high knot strength and durability in a wide range of conditions. The 25 yds spools can be easily 'clicked' into each other and a silicone band prevents the material from unwinding unintentionally.
Like any other FC, fluorocarbon from Umpqua has two major advantages: Firstly, FC has a comparable refractive index to water. This means that leaders made of FC are almost invisible in the water. In crystal-clear waters, it therefore often has the edge over conventional nylon (monofilament) leaders. On the other hand, fluorocarbon sinks easily, whereas nylon floats on the surface. For this reason and also due to its higher abrasion resistance, FC is often used where stones or other structures pose a danger during the fight.
