Abstract
A leader 10 for fly fishing proposed herein is formed of a single monofilament line. The leader 10 for fly fishing includes a tippet section 11 to which a fly is tied, a butt section 12 to which a fly line is tied, and an intermediate section 13 provided between the tippet section 11 and the butt section 12. Herein, the butt section 12 is thicker than the tippet section 11. The intermediate section 13 includes a front tapered portion 13a having a thickness that gradually increases from the tippet section 11, a rear tapered portion 13b having a thickness that gradually increases from the butt section 12, and a thicker portion than the butt section 12.

A leader for fly fishing formed of a single monofilament line, the leader comprising:
- a tippet section to which a fly is tied;
- a butt section to which a fly line is tied;
- and
- an intermediate section provided between the tippet section and the butt section, wherein the butt section is thicker than the tippet section, the intermediate section includes a front tapered portion having a thickness that gradually increases from the tippet section, a rear tapered portion having a thickness that gradually increases from the butt section, and a thicker portion than the butt section
- wherein the front tapered portion includes a first front tapered portion having a thickness that gradually increases from the tippet section, and a second front tapered portion having a thickness that gradually increases from a rear end of the first front tapered portion with respect to a length direction at a larger rate as compared to increase in the thickness of the first front tapered portion.
