Function: Tippet is the thin clear fishing line that goes between your main tenkara line (which is necessary for casting) and your fly, which gives additional distance between the main line and the fly. The shorter-length tippet is handy in smaller streams.
Material: Constructed from fluorocarbon, known for its exceptional toughness and minimal memory retention, providing outstanding flexibility, high tensile strength, and excellent resistance to abrasion.
Package: Pure Tenkara tippets come with a small and compact spool, very easy to carry out on a hike or fishing trip.
Advantage: In tenkara fishing, tippet has to be built into the system. It allows you to break off the tippet if caught in deep snags or high trees, less possible to break the rod. Tenkara rods and light tippets are good at protecting each other.
