Question about Fly Fishing?
I have a pool i have not used in my garage i tried to unreel the spool to let out the line "for some air" and i noticed after the floating line it was tied to some kind of string that looked kind of like kite string. Is that normal? Whats its purpose? Seems pretty weak. Also just to make sure i got this right. The line attaches to the leader and the leader attaches to the Tippet and the tippet to the Fly?
Oh and what is the tippet made out of and does anyone have a recommendation for a good one for Bass fishing to Pan Fishing? Thanks!
The Kite string that your talking about is called fly line backing. This is attached to the back end of the fly line generally with a nail knot.
The purpose of the backing is to one fill the reel up since the fly line is generally around 80-100 feet long and will not completely fill up the fly reel. Having the backing on the fly reel helps keep the fly line from developing memory (coils) so that you can cast and manage your line easier.
Since your fly line is not very long, you generally have anywhere from 50-125 yards of backing on your reel in case you get a fish on your line that takes a very long run. If your fly fishing for saltwater species you may have as much as 350+ yards of fly line backing on your reel to ensure the fish does not spool you.
Backing is attached to your fly line, where the butt section of your leader is attached to the front of your fly line. Most fly fisherman fish with pre-tapered leaders that are either made out of monofilament fishing line or fluorocarbon line. New tapered leaders that come out of a package generally have 24" of tippet, which is the last portion of the leader. You'll notice that the leader is very thick at the butt section and tapers down to a smaller diameter at the tippet section of the leader. This is the section that you attach your fly too.
