shockleader mainly yea mate... but you also have snag leaders aswell ... EG for ya
if i was to try and cast my 15lb line to the moon lol chances are i may crack off , losing the rig and leavin it live in the water for Mr Carp to pick up ...

but if it didnt crack off the distance achived would be less than :
say
usin a shockleader and 10lb line ......... the first rod length or so of line to my rig would be a shocky and then the 10lb would follow ..... this will achive greater distance as the 10lb line will give less resitance wen casting .... The shockleader will be made out of a stronger material .... braid or proper leader material .... this section will take all the force of your cast and not break ......where as if you used 10lb line all the way threw theres a high chance you will be losing that rig lol
smokey
just a quick run down mate for ya
