Wow, now 5x often has 5 lbs breaking strength. Thanks for sharing.

 

That was a drawn gut tippet. 1950 was probably the end of the line for that material. Nylon mono replaced it, though that mono was nowhere near as strong as todays formulations.

 

Resolved: for bass used a 10# or stronger tippet unless you are going with #6 or smaller flies.
