Anne Coleman –
Used this line for bonefish fishing in the Florida keys. The clear tip helped me get the fly down to where the fish were hiding. It casts well and holds up in saltwater. The welded loops are secure and the line feels strong under pressure.
Stephen Alsop –
Felt like a solid choice for tarpon fishing. The intermediate sink tip made a difference in getting the fly down quickly. A bit heavier than expected, but that’s probably due to the overweighted design for faster rod loading.

Great performance in warm, wet conditions. The line stayed slick and didn’t tangle. I used it with a heavy fly and it handled the long leader well. The clear tip is visible and helps with spotting fish.
