I tried nymphing with a furled leader rig this past week on the White in Arkansas in several different conditions. What helps is greasing the rig with Loon Henry's Fork Sink-It and. I used up to 6 feet of Flouro tippet. I was getting size 18 and 20 zebra midges with tungsten beads to the bottom in 3 foot deep riffles with no problem. In the big fast water out of a boat we were using split shot so it didn't make a big difference. I like the convenience of just changing tippet to suit my situation. This was with a 7 foot furled. I also have a 5 foot that I can use.
