Here is a good read on furled leaders. Brandon makes a top notch products and will even make custom stuff as well.

Love 'um... That's what I use as a "fly line" on my Tenkara Rods... mine are 12 foot and 13 foot length. I've also used them as a regular leader while fishing with traditional fly fishing gear, in the 8 and 9 foot lengths... They are nicely tapered and help turn over a fly well when you cast with them.

They're made of small diameter line twisted up to form a taper. Very flexible, less memory, and few wind knots. All I use since I tried them years ago. I'd recommend trying one!
