The Story
The Umpqua Link Tippet Tower is a machined aluminum spool dispensing system designed to manage up to seven standard tippet spools simultaneously. Built to integrate directly with Umpqua pack systems featuring Zero Sweep (ZS2) technology, this tower securely attaches to dedicated web loops, D-rings, or exterior modular patches. The rigid central shaft keeps spools aligned for smooth line payout, preventing tangles during complex rigging adjustments on the water.
Key Features
- Machined aluminum central shaft with a threaded retaining cap.
- Accommodates up to seven standard-sized tippet spools.
- Direct compatibility with ZS2 pack attachment ports.
- Integrated attachment clip for universal mounting on vests, waders, or bags.
Why We Like It
The rigid aluminum construction of this tower eliminates the sagging and line entrapment often experienced with flexible cord-based spool holders. By keeping all spools rotating on a single structured axis, anglers can quickly identify the correct diameter and pull line without the spools binding against each other. The threaded cap design locks the spools securely in place while allowing for quick, frustration-free reloading when a spool runs empty.
Additionally, its specific integration with ZS2 pack systems ensures the tower remains anchored flush against the exterior of your gear, reducing the profile and minimizing the risk of catching loose fly line while casting. This streamlined attachment method, combined with its high storage capacity, provides an organized, highly accessible solution for managing diverse tippet materials across changing river conditions.
