Tippet

A first-rate tippet can make all the difference between success and failure in the art of fly fishing. A top tippet will be light, thin and hard to see but strong. At TackleDirect, we carry a large assortment of saltwater and freshwater fly-fishing tippets that will boost your success rate no matter where in the world you fish. Our tippets are made by industry leaders such as Umpqua, Airflo and Rio, so you can buy with confidence.

It makes sense to pack a variety of tippets with you so you can change sizes and styles to adapt to changing conditions. We carry tippets in a range of colors, sizes and styles to increase your arsenal. Our tippet materials include nylon and fluorocarbon.

For fish with sharp teeth such as northern pike, musky, barracuda and bluefish, check out our nylon-coated wire tippet. It's supple enough to tie directly to your flies but tough enough to withstand bites from these toothy critters.
