Nymphmaniac - at Vision, this name stands for products that have been specially developed for modern nymph fishing. As the perfect complement to a Vision Nymphmaniac setup, the Finns now present the Nymphmaniac Two Tone Tippet.
The Vision Nymphmaniac Two Tone Tippet is the perfect addition to any Euro Nymph Leader. For tight line nymphing techniques (e.g. 'French Nymphing'), no classic bite indicators are used on the water surface, because these unnaturally accelerate the free drift of the nymph near the bottom. Instead, sighters, which do not carry the weight of the nymph, are used. Takes are sensed due to special leaders and thanks to sensitive rods (#2 - #4).
This sighter material from Vision is used for 'Euro Nymphing' - as the nymphing techniques are often summarised - to better observe the leader and the drift. The monofilament is dyed so that it can be optimally seen hanging in the air against many different backgrounds. It changes colour every 25 cm (fluo yellow/fluo pink) and can be shortened from the 30m spool to the right length.
This sighting aid is available in different diameters so that you can build your individual leader perfectly. As usual, you can switch a small tip builder ring between the tippet and the sighter as a secure connection or knot a Perfection Loop in the Two Tone Indicator. You can choose a fluorocarbon or nylon tippet (for nymph fishing we recommend the slightly stiffer Stroft ABR) depending on the water level and the target fish.
A typical rig looks like this: Nymph leader (min. between 12 ft. and 30 ft.) + 30 cm tippet sighter + 150cm to 200cm leader tip.
