Fred’s Tip
At Fred’s Custom Tackle, indicator tippet like this is a key part of modern nymphing setups. The two-tone colours make it much easier to see micro-movements in your drift—often the difference between missing a fish and setting the hook in time.
Expanded Description
The RIO Two Tone Indicator Tippet was developed for anglers who depend on visual cues when nymph fishing. The alternating colour sections create a highly visible strike indicator within your leader system, allowing you to see small hesitations or directional changes that signal a fish has taken the fly.
This style of indicator tippet is especially useful for Euro nymphing and tight-line techniques, where anglers track the line rather than using a traditional floating indicator. The bright two-tone colours help highlight subtle movements, improving hook-up rates.
Constructed from durable nylon, the tippet maintains strong knot strength while offering the abrasion resistance needed when fishing around rocks and structure.
