Used this tippet for dry fly fishing on clear water. The knot strength is excellent and the line holds up well under pressure. Easy to tie and doesn’t fray. Great for trout fishing in streams.
Peter Wallace –
Highly recommended for nymphing. The 100% fluorocarbon gives a natural feel and the tippet doesn’t show when fishing. Knots stay secure even in strong currents.
Una Rutherford –
Solid performance in the field. A bit stiff to tie at first, but once adjusted, it’s smooth and reliable. Works well with soft hackles and dry flies.

The 30yd spools are convenient for field use. No breakage during casting. Tensile strength is noticeably better than standard tippets.
