Gavin Hill –
Used this tippet for bonefish fishing on the flats. The knot strength is solid and the line doesn’t fray. It holds up well under heavy pulls and doesn’t kink easily. Good for tying leaders with a tapered section.
Sophie Ogden –
Fished with tarpon and it performed well in strong currents. The abrasion resistance is noticeable, especially when running through rocks. Easy to tie and the line stays true.
Boris Hart –
Good value for the strength range. The 30lb size worked well for permit fishing. A bit stiff, but that’s expected for saltwater use. No memory issues during casting.
Pippa Henderson –
Tied a leader with 20lb tippet for a long cast. The knot held firm and the line didn’t stretch unexpectedly. Great for consistent performance in saltwater conditions.
