RIO Tippet Rings
Tippet rings are a great way to extend the life of your leaders and tippets. Very popular with Euro style nymphing.
A leader with a tippet ring turns over perfectly. Use lightweight tippet rings when fishing dry flies. Just tie the tippet ring to a leader with a clinch knot, and then add the required tippet in the same way. Tapered leaders last longer with a tippet ring since the leader isn’t shortened every time tippets are replaced. Tippet rings also make it amazingly simple to add droppers. They work well for European Style Nymphing and for Indicator nymph fishing.

Connor James –
I’ve been using these tippet rings for several months now and they’ve made a big difference in my nymphing setup. The transition between leader and tippet is smooth and the rings hold securely. I no longer have to cut my leader every time I change tippets, which saves time and reduces waste.
Nicola Knox –
Great for adding droppers quickly. I use them when fishing in slow-moving waters with indicator nymphing. The lightweight design doesn’t affect my casting accuracy and the ring stays in place even in windy conditions.
Blake Lee –
I switched from traditional tippet changes to using tippet rings and noticed my tapered leaders last much longer. The setup is simple and I can easily adjust my tippet length without damaging the leader.
