Re: tippet question
Brandon, last I knew, "Orvis" tippet came out of the SA factory. Orvis actually manufactures only a very few of the products they sell, and leader and tippet is definitely not one of them.
The best way to save money on tippet is to not buy it. By that I mean that you should buy a 300 yard or so spool of Ande, Stren, or whatever in the size you need and refill that convenient little tippet spool whenever you run out. IT shouldn't take too long to do that and you will save oodles of money that way. Alot of the cost of tippet is the handy little spool and the work that goes into putting it there. A 300 yard spool should run you about $8 (I think) and you will get 10 tippet spools worth out of that.
