    Angry What is best way to find tippet end?

    Seems like I have to put something at the tippet end to find it on my spool. It is very frustrating. Are there some tips for finding the tippet end or a method storing line?

    If your spool does not have a band around it, use a pony tail holder around the spool, with the end sticking out somewhere along a side.
    Trouts don't live in ugly places.

    A friend is not who knows you the longest, but the one who came and never left your side.

    Don't look back, we ain't goin' that way.

    At a show last week, I picked up and looked at a spool of 10x

    I couldn't even tell if there was any tippet on the spool

    The simpler the outfit, the more skill it takes to manage it, and the more pleasure one gets in his achievements.
