Royal Wulff Triangle Taper Floating Classic 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 features a continuous forward taper in the head of the line, spanning 27 to 40 feet depending on the application. This design enables the most efficient transfer of casting energy as the heavier line constantly turns over the lighter line, improving casting performance.
This construction provides a more delicate presentation because the weight is positioned away from the fly. It is also recognized as the finest roll casting line for up to 60-foot casts. The combination of a long weighted section and a light running line gives the line a casting action similar to a shooting head for distance.

I’ve used this line for several seasons now and it’s become my go-to for dry fly fishing. The cast is smooth and the fly lands with minimal splash. The distance is impressive, especially on windy days. I appreciate how delicate it feels when the fly is in the air.
Leonard Burgess –
The triangle taper design really makes a difference in how the line behaves. It’s easier to control and the fly presents naturally. I’ve noticed better hook-ups on small trout streams with this line.
Anne Kelly –
Great for roll casting and long casts. The line feels balanced and doesn’t tangle easily. A bit more expensive than others, but the performance justifies the price.

I switched from a traditional taper to this line and immediately noticed the difference in casting efficiency. The energy transfer is smooth and the fly lands softly, which is perfect for sensitive waters.
