Orvis' new MaxKnot ties and holds stronger knots than any other fluorocarbon tippet; up to 49% stronger than regular Mirage. It’s superior because it’s created through a special double-extrusion method that gives the outer surface more suppleness. That means the knots tie, seat, and hold better so the tippet retains more of its original strength. The interior of MaxKnot has superior tensile strength too. The result is your connection to big fish is stronger than ever. And a stronger connection means more fish to hand.
