The tippet ring makes changing lines much faster. I use it with my Midge Tips and the connection feels solid and smooth. The SlickCast coating holds up well in water and doesn’t snag easily.

Great addition to my lake fishing gear. The Stillwater Floater with integrated tippet ring works well with my long leaders. It’s easier to switch lines without having to re-tie each time.
