Best Answer

A tippet is a stole or scarf-like narrow piece of clothing, worn around the arms and above the elbow. The ceremonial scarf or Tippet is worn by Anglican priests with choir dress and hangs straight down at the front.

There is no theological or priestly reason for the tippet. It is a matter of creating a priestly aura or priestly dress.

Matching fly fishing tippet with rod?

Tippet is not commonly matched to the weight of a fly rod. It is more common to match your tippet to your leader or to the type of water you are fishing. When fishing for bigger fish you often need to use stronger tippet. If fishing in clear, shallow conditions it's often necessary to use tippetIt's very important to match your fly line to your rod, it would be a large error not to do this - check out the article in the related link for more information on fly lines.Edit (WeeHughie) - Actually the above is incorrect regarding matching tippet to fish size. Tippet material is matched to fly size. Even if the big bruisers are going for size 20 flies, you won't be able to get size 2X tippet through the eye of a size 20 hook. So it is more correct to say that the tippet is to match the hook size.
