I have been using a two turn surgeons knot for years to connect my top dropper tippets, but I recently discovered that in a lot of stiffer copolymer and fluorocarbon leader material this knot breaks quite easily. Normally I use a tippet ring from my tapered leader to the first piece of tippet (approx 2ft or so) then off that tie a dropper using a tippet knot and so on depending on the number of flies. I have tried the Uni to Uni which is seems, ok better than surgeons but not the greatest. The J knot, the Orvis tippet (seagaur is a variation of this one) they seem better again.
What tippet know agrees best with the trout cast copolymer tippet ? I just got some recently.
Just curious what you all use?
Cheers,
Dave
