Cortland Guide Saltwater Outfit 9’0″ 8wt – 4pc
Cortland Line’s new Guide Series fly fishing outfits were designed by hardcore anglers to offer premium performance at an affordable price. Without a doubt, the “expensive” stigma shadows over the sport of fly fishing, with little attention to detail for both beginner and intermediate level anglers. These outfits were built using quality components and tested for long-term abuse.
Saltwater fly line and reel does require regular care and maintenance to prolong the lifespan of the line. Always rinse line and reel with freshwater after use in saltwater to remove any salt particles that can corrode or damage the line and reel. It is always recommended to clean the full fly line with our fly line cleaner and lubricated pads after rinsing with freshwater.
