Line Twist
I noticed today that my tippet was twisting casting those size 8 and 10 spiders. Would something larger like 4x or 3x spook the gills?

Yep, guys, I agree, I see no alternative. A bug that big is going to twist the tippet. Not a big deal.
When trout, on the other hand, are hot on chasing streamers you can get away with 2x or 3x tippet.
