Wild Water Fly Fishing

Field Notes

Use as fly-fishing tippet material to connect the leader to the fly. Clear nylon is a good all-around choice for trout and other freshwater situations where a supple, abrasion-resistant connection is needed.

Pros

  • Clear nylon is versatile and low-visibility
  • 2X size offers useful strength for larger flies or fish
  • 30 m spool provides plenty of material

Cons

  • Nylon has more stretch and water absorption than fluorocarbon
  • Not ideal when maximum abrasion resistance or sink rate is needed
