Tippet and Leaders There are 4 products.

Leaders transfer the power from the rod or fly line to the tippet and fly. There are many types of leader available with different profiles and thicknesses. What we are looking for are leaders that are suitable for all leader to hand techniques and Tenkara style fishing. Tippet is the line that goes on the end of your leader and the fish will see. What I am looking for is the very best tippet material out there to bring to you. The better the material, the more reliable it will be. This will increase the chance of catching the fish and reduce the chance losing the fish of a lifetime due to imperfections in your tippet. Always insist on using the best tippet you can find.
