>From my experience over the weekend, 10 year old tippet is not a good choice. I hope to get some new before the San Juan trip. Jimi
Where are the scientists lately? I have some tippet that is quite old and have no problem with it (horsing 4-5lb fish on 6-7x sort of stories). Thinking back, I seem to remember that UV rays to DEET has been discussed as having an affect on tippet. Hans (where is that man?) has stated his disdain for floro, claiming it takes forever to disintegrate. Now, some of my ancient Orvis material did go bad but it was 20+ years old. Another thing, I clean things up and store them in a locker when not fishing. Murf -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
