Scientific Anglers Absolute Bass leaders are made with a proprietary copolymer blend that is designed to drastically reduce water absorption while maintaining an optimal suppleness for high knot strength.

Absolute nylon leaders and tippet have a 29% higher wet knot strength compared to their previous material and up to 40% higher wet knot strength when compared to the competitors. Their new paper-based leader packaging is now 100% recyclable. All materials, inks, and window are fully biodegradable to protect our streams and reduce our environmental footprint.
