Wire Leader Storage

[C.C.Pikie]

I'm looking for suggestions for storage of wire Leaders. I have a number of large and small Pike or Musky leaders that I'd like to keep organized and free of kinks. Not seeing much online...

I used to keep mono leaders on a piece of styrofoam with slits cut in the ends.

If you want to keep them all together, and you have the room, a Plano 3707 utility box works nicely. For anything longer that doesn't fit flat, roll them around your fingers and then put one end into the coil about 2 times. This will keep them from uncoiling. See link

I bet you could use a length of pool noodle or water pipe insulation.

What Mark said. Pool noodle works great and is pretty cheap. I make up a lot of salmon leaders before the season and store them this way. You can also make two lines about 2 inches apart along the length of the section of noodle you want to cut and then score each place you want to put a leader except for the part between the lines. This will tend to hold your leader material a bit better but leave a small portion visible. I just use a sharp knife and roll the noodle while holding the knife stationary. Start at one line and roll to the next leaving between your lines uncut.
