Sebastian Wright –
I’ve used this tippet for several trout fishing trips and it holds up well under pressure. The knots tie easily and stay secure even in strong currents. The 5.5X size fits perfectly between 5X and 6X, which was exactly what I needed.
Simon Coleman –
The fluorocarbon is tough and smooth. I tied a few knots and they held firm without fraying. The half sizes are a real help when choosing between standard sizes.
Sebastian North –
Good strength and easy to knot. The 6.5X size worked well in my setup. A bit more expensive than standard tippets, but worth it for the performance.
