Tippet
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.
