What is a tippet? The tippet in fishing terminologies is the end part of a tapered leader where the fly is tied to. Its described to be the smallest diameter of the portion of the tapered leader. To avoid confusion, the leader is the material located between the fly and fly line. Its a material made of monofilament and is usually tapered so that the fly doesnt mess with the fly line when it is thrown.
