Perform X Nylon Tippet
The Perform X Nylon Tippet brings three-layer engineering to your leader system—strength where it counts, flexibility when you need it, and a hydrophobic coating that sheds water to keep dry flies floating exactly where you placed them.
Built for Precision Presentation
Each spool features a proprietary three-layer construction that balances tensile strength with the suppleness required for delicate presentations. The result is a tippet that turns over cleanly, lands softly, and holds knots under pressure—whether you're threading size 22 midges or swinging streamers through pocket water.
Hydrophobic Performance
The water-resistant coating doesn't just repel moisture—it actively improves floatation for dry fly work, keeping your leader system riding high in the surface film without constant dressing. Less maintenance, more time fishing.
What You'll Appreciate
- Superior knot strength across the full size range
- Enhanced floatability for dry fly and emerger patterns
- Natural elasticity absorbs shock on light tippets
- Umpqua ProBand spool design for secure, tangle-free storage
- Available in 8X through 010X to match any hatch or technique
Whether you're matching a Blue-Winged Olive hatch on spring creeks or working hoppers along undercut banks, Perform X delivers the reliability and performance that keeps you focused on the rise—not your rigging.
