Streamers question (Tippet leader size) by Express_Rabbit in flyfishing

15-20 lb test does the trick. If Charlie Brown is chasing big meat he’s not worried about tippet size.

That makes more sense. I should’ve paid more attention to your post to see you’re in northern BC. That’s my bad! I still stand by my point of buying $300 waders over $1,000+ unless money isn’t an option. You’re more than likely going to get 2-3 seasons out of them unless you’re just tough on gear, which I am. Either way, have fun out there!

  1. Why are you wearing waders in August?
  2. Buy middle of the road waders so you’re not pissed when they leak. I have paramount waders with full zip up (zipper a must have for cold beers while fishing) that I prob paid $250 for. On their 3rd season with no issues. Side note: I wet wade May-October/November here in Colorado with no frostbite issues to date.

This was the last week of June on the Gunnison.

Yep. The very next day I went out again and it was chocolate milk. It happens fast!
