Benefits and key strengths :
The Devaux TIGER NYMPH BICOLORED stands out for its visual
realism on the water and its superior performance. Its alternating bright colors provide
maximum visibility, even in low light or on reflective surfaces. The regular color change every 40 cm makes line detection easier, rendering each movement or take immediately perceptible. Its exceptional abrasion resistance and suppleness ensure precise casts and effective nymph presentation. This line also combines
fineness and strength, allowing anglers to fish for wary trout while avoiding unexpected break-offs.
Usage tips and recommended setups :
To exploit the full potential of the Devaux TIGER NYMPH BICOLORED NYLON, pair it with a thin leader/head and weighted nymphs suited to the current. Use a tapered leader and adjust length according to the targeted spot. The high visibility facilitates nymph-on-the-drop technique: lay your nylon on the water while maintaining contact to quickly detect all takes by line jerks or stops. The optimal strength of the nylon reduces the risk of losing fish, even during fights with strong specimens. Clean the nylon regularly to ensure perfect glide and preserve its intense color.
Ideal for French and European rivers, whatever the water clarity.
