Umpqua's Hydrophobic coating keeps the nylon from absorbing water throughout the day which historically results in weaker knots and overall tinsel strength. Their third layer is a continuous coating which creates smooth, consistent, and reliable material. All of Umpqua's X rated tippet includes a custom Umpqua ProBand to keep tippet at the ready, right where you left it.
Nylon offers unique advantages to anglers.
