Product information "Umpqua Stratos X Dry Fly Grey Camo Tippet 30yds"

The Umpqua leaders and tippets are thoughtfully engineered from A to Z, designed specifically for their intended purpose. Not only in terms of length and strength, but especially in material composition and performance, these nylon leaders are optimized for their respective niches. From delicate trout fishing to salmon, pike, and more – a wide range of applications is covered.

Stratos X Dry Fly Tippet is a true gamechanger for all those who want no compromises when dry fly fishing. Made from a specially developed, ultra-lightweight co-polymer, this tippet material is about 10% less dense than standard nylon. This allows it to float significantly higher on the water surface – ensuring perfect fly presentation. The gray camo coloration breaks up the tippet's outline, greatly reducing visibility in the water, giving you a clear advantage when targeting spooky or selective fish.

The ultra-soft and supple material allows for natural drifts even in micro-currents – ideal for technical presentations. At the same time, Stratos X impresses with exceptional abrasion resistance, rivaling many fluorocarbon tippets. With medium stretch for excellent feedback, strong knot strength, and very low memory, this tippet is especially user-friendly – both on the water and during setup.

  • Softer and more flexible than fluorocarbon
  • Excellent knot strength
  • Floats high on the surface – perfect for dry fly fishing
