Carolyn Tucker –
Used this tippet for trout fishing in a clear stream and noticed the line stayed invisible and didn’t fray. The knot strength held up well during a long cast and drift. Very reliable for dry fly and nymphing.
Audrey Grant –
The 0X size worked perfectly for my streamer setup. Supple and smooth, no drag during drifts. The UV protection helped keep it strong even after a few days in the sun.
Bernadette Thomson –
Good clarity and strong knot performance. A bit stiff when first pulled, but settles in quickly. Works well with both indicators and nymphs in stillwater.
Piers Campbell –
Switched from regular fluorocarbon and saw a noticeable improvement in knot strength. The silicone band is a nice touch and the line doesn’t break under pressure.
