Tippet
Tippet is the last part of line that you tie in the leader, and attach your fly with. Tippet is made from Nylon and Fluorocarbon. Fluorocarbon has a similar refractive index as water, which makes it nearly invisible underwater; a distinct advantage if the fish are leader shy. It is easier to untangle because it is slightly stiffer than nylon. Nylon is a little more visible underwater, has good knot strength, floats well, and a great choice if the clarity of water is a little off or fishing dry flies. |

Quite possibly the best performing Fluorocarbon Tippet available, TroutHunter's fluorocarbon tippet incorporates a unique co-polymer material design with a hard inner core that provides an unusually high tensile strength, while the softer outer core makes it possible to tie the best knots. The polycarbonate, large arbor spool reduces material memory, and allows easy stacking of multiple spools.
- U.V Protective packaging
- Waterproof packaging
- 50 meter spools
- Designed by fishermen
- Nearly invisible due to the refractive index being nearly the same as water.
- Superb knot strength and abrasion resistance
- Remarkable strength-to-diameter ratio
