Elizabeth Skinner –
Used this tippet for bonefish fishing in the Bahamas. The knot strength is excellent and the line doesn’t kink or memory. It held up well in strong currents and during repeated casts. The 20lb size worked perfectly for my leader setup.
Tracey Vaughan –
Fished with tarpon in Florida. The abrasion resistance was noticeable when the line rubbed against rocks. The 30lb size gave me good strength without being too thick. Easy to tie and maintain a clean knot.
Brandon Parr –
Good quality for the price. The 15lb size was perfect for permit fishing. A bit stiff, but that’s expected. The tippet didn’t fray during long sessions on the boat.
Anna Parsons –
Tapered down from 40lb to 10lb using this tippet. The knot strength and consistency made it easy to set up. No issues with line memory or breakage during a full day of fishing.
