Used this tippet in a clear lake with small trout. The line stayed invisible and didn’t break under pressure. Strong knot hold and smooth handling. Great for dry fly fishing.
Warren Clark –
Felt more durable than other fluorocarbon tippets I’ve tried. The visibility is minimal, which helps when fishing in open water. A bit stiff when first unspooled, but settles in quickly.

Perfect for early morning fishing when water is clear. The abrasion resistance held up well during a long session. No line breakages and the knot stayed secure.
