New tippet line ... I have been struggling over the last few months with the usual brands of tippet. I have been trying Climax 98 over the last couple of months and can say this has been the best tippet I have used. Not strength is excellent and turnover is also excellent. The 30m spools below I use for the Rainbow Trout fishing & the 9ft tapered leaders I use for the Brown Trout on the rivers Price wise the 9ft tapered leaders come in around £2.50 for a pack of 2 & the 30m spools come in around £3.99 per spool. Enjoy your fishing. Vid @ FishClyde
