I have tried several different leader formulas.
Orvis from their leader tying kit. (my first)
George Harvey from the book Memories Patterns and Tactics
As well as others above are just to name a few.
The Orvis recipe is cut and dry.
The Harvey recipe calls for different materials ex. Climax Umpqua Cortland etc.
I seem to have iconsistent results with the leader turning over.
No matter which I try.
Looking for a good/consistent leader recipe for general conditions as far as wind water flow etc. Using floating WF line
Using all types of flies in all of the more common sizes 16 to 12
Does matching the tippet size to fly size really matter EX.
What if water clarity calls for a 5x or 6x tippet yet the fly size to match the hatch is 12?
