Review of Rio Powerflex tippet

  This tippet material is tied-for-first (in my book) with Orvis tippets. Its probably the most popular among trout anglers in the U.S. I love it because it doesn't get crimped or bent when pinched and it comes at a good price. You might think that a $2.00 spool of tippet is the same as Rio's $5.00 spool of powerflex but there's a difference. It comes in spools of 30m and 0X to 8X for the average freshwater fisherman and up to 60 pound for saltwater anglers. If you want to land fish without losing flies then I suggest going with Powerflex.
