  • Good value
    By PocketWaterVerified Purchaser from Orange County, CA on 09/06/2010
    Pros:
    Durable
    Cons:
    Feels 'thick', Stiff for 6x
    Best Uses:
    Fly Fishing
    Describe Yourself:
    Avid Fisher
    Was this a gift?:
    No
    Bottom Line:
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
    This is good-value tippet. Just make sure you don't pull the knot too quickly, or without wetting the knot. Perhaps I'm imagining this, but this 6X feels somewhat thick and stiff compared to that one other major "O" brand out there. But it's a pretty small issue--apparently the spooky browns didn't notice the difference! Tight lines, everyone!

  • Breaks easily
    By Fly BabyVerified Reviewer from Los Angeles, CA on 07/04/2010
    Cons:
    Poor Construction
    Best Uses:
    Fly Fishing
    Describe Yourself:
    Casual/ Recreational
    Bottom Line:
    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
    I used the 6x on a recent fishing trip and it broke as I was checking a knot. I pulled some more line off and was able to break it with my hands. This hasn't happened with other brands. My guess is that this stock is old and therefore brittle. Even though it cheap it's a waste of money.

  • Not worth it
    By Fly Baby from Southern California on 06/20/2010
    Cons:
    Poor Construction
    Best Uses:
    Fly Fishing
    Describe Yourself:
    Avid Fisher
    Bottom Line:
    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
    Either I got a defective tippet reel or the material is out of date - either way the 6x breaks easily and is very brittle. Stay away.

    Rio tippet material in sizes 6x and 7x are very unreliable. Either poor material or they are out of date. Break very easily.
