Floating Fly Lines
Floating fly lines are a must-have in any fly fisher’s gear, especially when fishing with dry flies, emergers, CDC patterns, or flies just below the surface. Their main advantage is that they stay on top of the water, allowing for precise control and effective fly presentation. With various profiles (WF, DT) and line weights available, our selection suits everyone from beginners to advanced anglers. We offer high-quality lines from leading global brands, ensuring smooth casting, long durability, and minimal surface disturbance.
Key Features:
- Perfect for surface or near-surface fishing
- Excellent visibility and line control
- Available in different profiles and AFTMA weights
- Resistant to UV damage and wear
Fly Line Profiles:
-
DT – Double Taper
As the name suggests, the line tapers evenly from both ends with the weight concentrated in the middle. This type is ideal for shorter casts and delicate presentations of artificial flies. Both ends of the fly line can be used.
-
WF – Weight Forward
The weight is concentrated toward the front of the line, giving it a club-like shape that focuses kinetic energy to carry the rest of the line forward. The front part of the line is used for casting, while the rear section remains toward the reel.
Fly Line Sink Rates:
- F – Floating: Fly lines that float on the surface.
- S – Sinking: Lines that sink beneath the surface.
- I – Intermediate: Lines with neutral buoyancy, slowly sinking.
- F/S – Floating/Sinking: Floating lines with a sinking tip.
