I'm sure David meant a 2 lb tippet - like a 7x or 8x.

Good job David !!

I put the wrong picture up .. my 20# Tippet tested over 20# which means that it can't be recorded as 20# it is the biggest tippet for Lake Whitefish and my 16# tested over #16 so it is a 20# line class tippet WR for Fly Rod

just called in today for clarification

next year

David



6 Lake Whitefish by 10am


Wow fishing Lake Whitefish is spectacular!!!

C&R-5 kept 1 ...lost 5

Fun fun fun

even the bridge repair didn't stop this Old Guy

Enjoy

David
