Overview

The RIO Suppleflex Tippet is incredibly strong, with excellent knot strength and, as its name suggests, unbelievably soft and supple. A featherweight presentation does not impede the natural movement of a fly in the current. Available in 4X - 7X, the Suppleflex is the perfect choice for the trout angler fishing with smaller flies. Extremely supple, soft nylon. Ideal for trout, small flies and anytime you need a subtle presentation.

Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 11 reviews.

My 18/22 dry fly tippet in slack water and buckets.

"Rio Suppleflex is the best tippet I have ever used in fishing small dries to big trout in slack water. The trout in my home waters are ridiculously leader shy and will refuse 6X. Suppleflex in 6X and 7X is supple enough for beautiful drifts and strong enough to land two foot long trout."

Good Product.

"Its a good product for some fishing applications, ie dry fly fishing to spooky trout. The only reason I bought it is that my local fly shop, its 70 miles from my door carries it. The season is just getting started. The real test is going to be on my favorite hatch to fish, The Sulphers in late May and June!"

Serious dry fly anglers need

"Serious dry fly anglers need to try Suppleflex leaders and tippet. For spring creeks I use the 12’ 5x Suppleflex leaders and add Suppleflex tippet (5x, 6x and 7x) to achieve what I feel are better drag free drifts over other materials. If you haven’t checked out the Suppleflex leaders make sure you do, the first thing you’ll notice is the butt diameter is way thinner than even a Powerflex leader, and thin + soft will give your dry fly a wetter drift on complex currents."
