Royal Wulff Triangle Taper Classic Floating Two Tone Fly Line
Of the many innovations that Lee Wulff has contributed to fly fishing, the Triangle Taper fly line is perhaps the most popular. Winner of the coveted Kudo award, the triangle taper offers the greatest delicacy of any fly line. The Triangle Taper is a continuous forward taper in the head of the line, the first 27 to 40 feet depending on the application. This provides the most efficient transfer of casting energy as it unrolls because the heavier line is constantly turning over lighter line. This design also gives you a more delicate presentation because the weight is away from the fly. It is also the finest roll casting line for up to 60′ casts. The combination of a long weighted section and a light running line make the triangle taper cast like a shooting head for distance. The tip end is designed for smooth, accurate delivery.

This fly line delivers exceptional casting performance with smooth, accurate casts. The delicacy is noticeable when fishing for trout in calm waters. I’ve used it for dry fly fishing and it handles the wind well without losing control.

The triangle taper design makes a big difference in how the line casts. It feels more natural and responsive. I’ve cast up to 60 feet with ease and the fly lands softly on the water.

Great for still water fishing. The line casts smoothly and the weight distribution helps with delicate presentations. A bit heavier than other lines, but worth it for precision.
