Used this line on a recent trip to the Bahamas. The loop stability is outstanding, especially during second shots. The floating performance kept the fly high and clean. Great for cruising bonefish in shallow flats.

After switching from a standard floating line, I noticed a significant improvement in casting distance and accuracy. The SlickCast coating feels durable and the taper makes loading the rod easy even at close range.
Jonathan Brown –
Solid performance on flatwater fishing. The line holds up well in saltwater conditions. A bit more challenging to cast with if you’re new to bonefish fishing, but worth it for experienced anglers.

Perfect for fast, accurate casts when fish are moving across the flats. The floating action keeps the fly above the water, which helps with natural presentation.
