Poly Leader to Fluro/Nylon

#1 Post by enoonan001 »

All,
For those that are using poly leaders, how do you connect your fluro/nylon?
I have been trying tippet rings and small swivels for a while now and I reckon that the tippet rings are prob better.

Any thoughts?

Hi Eoin,

just seeing your post today, I place alot of confidence in the orvis tippet knot, simple, strong and quick to tie. Also leaves a nice tag end for a dropper if you wish to hedge your bets. (blank insurance!)
I've used tippet rings and found them good. However I'm trying to reduce the amount of items I need to remember to pack,buy and lose while SWFF
