I use this line for trout fishing in small streams. The black marker helps me start my cast accurately. The line is light and responsive, perfect for delicate dry fly presentations.
Sally North –
Great for swinging soft hackles. The front taper makes it easy to deliver flies softly without spooking the fish. A bit shorter than other Spey lines, which suits my casting style.

The texture on the head is noticeable and helps me find the cast start every time. I’ve used it for both dry flies and light streamers with good results in spring steelhead waters.
