Just found something even
better than the No Knot Fast Snap. Dave over at FishnDave Blog left a comment
on the No Knot Fast Snap Post I did for Monday. He sent me a link dealing with MiniTippet Rings, which is exactly what I am looking for to actually save on
leaders. These little rings are even better than the Fast Snap because of the
diameter and ease at which you can attach the tippet. These can actually be used
with Dry Flies and Midges. The following
is the description of the rings-----Dave said he uses the rings and is sold on
them. Thanks to Dave for helping me out here.
Product Overview:
These nickel alloy rings
are very small, smooth and seamless connectors between your leader and tippet.
Tie one on the end of your leader, then tie the tippet onto the ring These
rings make changing or replacing tippet easy without nibbling away at the
leader. They really have caught on among competitive fly fishers, because of
the speed and ease with which tippet can be changed. May be used on any leader
system and are excellent for tying droppers. Though light enough to fish dry
flies and midges on 7X tippets, they will handle any load your leader and
tippet will bear. Available in the original nickel silver and now in black
nickel for use in deep water or low light levels; choose from nominal 2
mm for light to medium leader or 3
mm size for heavy leader and tippet. Made in England, available with 20 or
100 rings per package.
