If you want to catch fish...Fly presentation is everything in catching the larger fish. The Fluroflex tippet has been my favorite for some time now. I can trust it to make the fly presentation as perfect as possible. It flows and presents well in any water, fast or slow. Works well with just about any size fly. I won't use any other brand. Good job RIO. Thanks Cabela's for stocking this item.

Fluoro is the tops!Super strong tippet. Great for line-shy trout. And if you're wondering if it's worth it when compared to mono, take the plunge because it is! Bass Pro Shops shipped extremely fast. An awesome service.

The Best FluorocarbonThis stuff is fantastic -- strong, high tensile strength for its diameter, abrasion resistant, etc. After having used every fluorocarbon tippet material available to fly fishermen I've come to the conclusion that this is the best.
I am also a fan of Seaguar Grand Max which is also strong but doesn't have quite the abrasion resistancy of this product.
My only complaint of all these fluorocarbons is their cost -- they are way too expensive.

Fluorocarbon reviewSence using fluorocarbon tipit for underwater fishing, I'am catching more fish and the fish are bigger both lakes and rivers.
What is the equivilant pound test for each x size, ie. (5X=4 lb test)?
Asked by: r2oflychucker
This is almost impossible to answer because the X size is referring to a specific diameter. Here is a chart of X sizes:
0x = .011"
1x = .010"
2x =.009"
3x = .008"
4x= .007"
5x= .006"
6x= .005"
7x= .004"
8x= .003"
The X size is referring to the average diameter of the line, not the lb test. Two different lines which average the same diameter can be significantly different in lb test.
For example I've seen 0x diameter (.011") range in lb test from as little as 8lb test to as much as 15lb test.
If you are purchasing a premium brand such as Orvis, Rio, Seguar, etc. you will find there are subtle differences in the lb test in each size. Generally speaking these materials will have a higher lb test per diameter than conventional fishing lines.
