Quick take
A fly tippet kit with four diameters and spools, holder, and tenders for managing tippet at streamside.
This fly fishing tippet kit holds four 55-yard spools of clear nylon in 4X, 5X, 6X and 7X, the fine end of the range for small flies and wary trout. A tippet holder clips to a vest or bag, and color-coded spool tenders keep each size tidy and easy to tell apart on the stream. It suits fly anglers who want a spread of light tippet sizes in one pack.
Best for
- Fly anglers who tie their own leaders and tippet
- Fishing with multiple fly patterns at different water conditions
- Stream fishing where quick tippet changes are needed
Skip if
- You prefer pre-made tapered leaders; buy complete leaders
- You fish saltwater; freshwater material only
Strengths
- Four tippet sizes cover small dry flies through medium nymphs
- Tippet holder keeps spools organized on vest or pack
- 55 yards per spool provides plenty of material for several outings
Trade-offs
- Requires knowledge of leader construction to use effectively
- Clear nylon is harder to see when setting hook
- Tippet breaks easily if bumped against rocks or line guide
