I could of swore someone had already posted this question but couldn't find it in the search but Whats the difference between tippet and regular fishing line??? Say for example 4lb Berkleys Vanish vs 5x Frog Hair Tippet...
I know the fly fishing elites are cringing but with the cost of Gas im trying to save a few $$$ here and there and If you roll the numbers 1 30m roll of tippet runs about 3 dollars unless you buy Frog Hair 13.00 and 1 150yd roll of regular fishing line go's for around 5 bucks seems to be a much better value.
I thought flouro and mono was all the same ??? Is tippet manufactured differently ???
