MC-40 4wt Fly Line
Description
The tapered head is contained within the first 40ft of this powerful, long distance fly line. Adhering to AFFTA specifications, it contains 120 grains (7.8 grams) in the first 40 ft of line and is designed to enable your rod to cast butter smooth. Designed for an accurate and delicate final presentation, the MC-404 is ideal when fishing for skittish brookies and other small trout in crystal-clear mountain waters. Welded loops at both ends make for efficient loop-to-loop attachment.
