Rovex Mono Leader Material

Rovex’s new range of braids and mono’s are complimented by a full range of leader material. This includes monofilament leaders and flurocarbon. Today I’m having a quick look at the 40lb Rovex Mono Leader Material.

There are two things that make up good leader material. The first thing should be quite obvious - Performance. But a second deciding factor for me, is ease of use, which includes but not limited to dispensing.

Rovex has taken this into account with well though out packaging. This is done by an outer plastic ring that slides over the spool. Your leader is dispensed evenly and steadily and there is not a tangle in sight. Its simple, yet effective and saves a whole lot of elastic bands.

Now onto the performance. The material itself is quite a stiff leader, which I would bring down to the fact its designed to have a very high abrasion resistance. This does make knot tying a bit more difficult but in saying that, a bit of lube never goes astray when pulling knots up tight.

After numerous trips out using this leader on a snells, bottom rigs and big soft plastics, it held its own well. Not only did the snells survive the likes of Small black tip sharks, it was supple and flexible enough to to work plastics too.

Rovex Mono leader material is brutally tough but light on the wallet, and well worth a look in if your after performance leader at a lower price point.
