We've just received shipment of our new Sightfree Extreme Fluorocarbon tippet material. To make it all simple to understand this product is the best quality fluorocarbon available on the market for fly fishing and we have it under the Airflo brand for the New Zealand market.

This is why we added it to our range.

1. This is the best stuff in the world hands down, we can't tell you who makes it for us, but we can tell you that all the best fluorocarbon comes from Japan. This stuff is the highest quality available from the best factory available. With a bit of negotiation, sushi eating and head bowing we now have it in our range and with that in mind we are very lucky.

2. This stuff is super supple. the only down side of fluorocarbon is that it is stiff. The new Extreme is very supple and feels in the hand more like a coploymer. The resul is your flies will move a lot more naturally in the water.

3. This stuff is really clear. you only have to look at this stuff in your hand and you'll notice it's much clearer than other fluorocarbons.

4. It's tough. The way the manufacturer explains it, this extreme material is much purer than other fluorocarbons and as a result the bonds are much stronger within the material, the result is it is super strong.

So in summary, this new fluorocarbon is awesome This is what I'll be using for sure. We still sell G3 as it is a great price and so many anglers are confident with it. Also we will still run our copolymer as it's still going to be the best for tiny dries and again a lot of anglers love this material.

The new material is going to be a $34.99 for a 50m spool which is a little more expensive than G3 that is $24.99 for 50m. However as many of our competitors sell their 25 and 30m spools for $25 Sightfree Extreme is still going to be extremely well priced and of course much higher quality.
