Captain Bruce Chard, a full time Florida Keys flats guide, FFF casting instructor and fishing photographer has designed a series of fly lines that best handle the conditions needed to cast, present, and fish a heavily weighted fly hard into the wind. The most prestigious fish deserves the most prestigious line. You need a long cast and a delicate, accurate presentation when you have calm conditions versus shorter casts with a powerful tight loop that will drive a longer leader with a heavy fly hard into the wind. The hard “HPC” (high performance coating) coating and stiff mono core will help in creating tight loops and turning over long leaders, while minimizing line tangles.
Excellent for many similar types of fishing, ranging from Permit, Tarpon, Bonefish, Shark, Barracuda and anything else that requires a great presentation with a large fly.

Gary LaFontaine, author of many
trout books and well-known lecturer, designed an improved weight forward
floating line with our new “HPC” coating
(high performance coating). What he wanted more than anything
else was a very easy casting, accurate line for dry fly fishing and shallow
water nymphing. This fly line has the perfect taper for smooth casting
and is designed for the ultimate control necessary for delicate and accurate
presentation. |
