Applications

• Cold – When fishing cold water streams and rivers, these lines are the optimal choice. They remain supple, refuse to coil, and outperform lines built for warmer climates.
• Medium – Lines featuring this icon are excellent all-around lines for almost any climate. While they may turn limp in tropical conditions, these lines will perform well in moderate and cool climates.
• Nymphs – Nymphs are tied to imitate aquatic insects that live underwater. This icon signifies a line designed to fish weighted nymphs for a variety of species.
• Streamers – Streamers are sub-surface flies tied to imitate baitfish, leeches, and other sources of food that swim. Casting streamers can be a challenge, so lines marked with this icon provide added power to aid in their delivery.
• Poppers / Big Dries – Casting large-bodied dry flies and poppers requires additional power in order to provide proper presentation. Lines with this icon are designed to handle larger dries and popper flies without any hiccups.
• Indicator – An indicator is simply a float or bobber attached to a line that alerts anglers when a sub-surface fly has been taken by a fish. This icon signifies a line that has been designed with a longer rear taper, meant to help casting and mending.
