Hey I just picked up a few spools of frogs hair to change things up. I've been a loyal Orvis Superstrong for 2 years now but I decided to go with something different. I personally don't like using Florocarbon, and my fishing "mentor" you could call me has kind of stuck me on using Mono. The price is a bit higher on the lines, and me being a poor college student, I dont know if the extra 10 bux or so was worth it. Any input appreciated . Btw I fish mostly still waters, unless I'm out on some of the rough sections of the deleware or croton in NY.

thanks in advance!

Frog Hair is # 1 in my books. One thing that no one has brought up is that UV kills all other mono. If brand "o" or any other brand has been out in the light, after about 1 year , toss it!!!!! Frog Hair is not effected by light and UV. The shelf life is years not nonths. E-mail Frog hair and get a knot sheet from them. They have put alot of work into knot's and their strenght. ( info@froghairfishing.com ) Their leaders are as good as the tippet, by the way.

I like Frog Hair for it's strength, stretch and suppleness. I haven't tried the new, harder Frog Hair but from 3X on down it works far better than any other tippet I've tried.

Have you guys tried Enrico Puglisi tippet?

Has anyone tried Frog hair leader tying kit($98)? I am thinking about getting it. It seems cheaper than buying packs of knotted leaders and spools of tippets. I was afraid that it may get weak and break off, if I don't use it up within a year. But if what "the fly guy" had said is true(good for more than a year), it seems a very good choice.

Brookbow,
