Description

The tapered head is contained within the first 40ft of this fly line, giving it the necessary punch to carry a fly through windy conditions or over long distances while still allowing for delicate final presentations. 

This fly fishing line adheres to AFFTA specifications, ensuring your fly rod casts exactly as the manufacturer intended. Welded loops at both ends make for efficient loop-to-loop attachment to leader and backing.
