The TS Series represents a longer version of the original Teeny T Series fly lines. The sinking section is 30 feet long with a 70 foot running line section with our new “HPC” coating (high performance coating), totaling 100 feet. The title of the line is Saltwater Series, but it works equally well in freshwater when distance is important. The reason I designed this line was for anglers who prefer to cast long distances of up to 100 feet. I have found this line to be very useful on many of our big wide rivers on the west coast where casting distance is important. What I like about this type of line is if you wish to fish close in, say 20 to 30 feet, you can easily do this. Simply roll cast some of the sinking line. Short leaders seem to work best with these lines. I usually run about 4 feet of leader off my fly line when I am fishing for Steelhead or Salmon. The best way to cast this type of line is to get the color change to your rod tip and roll cast your line to the surface and then immediately make a single false cast and then shoot it where you want it to go. My favorite size for Billfish is the TS-550 which is perfect for quick casting and excellent balance to turn over large flies. This line works equally well in both fresh and salt water.

Our New TS-T Flats Taper line has a 10 foot (Clear Tip slow sinking) along with 14 feet of regular intermediate sinking line. Total tip length is 24' of slow sinking head and 76 feet floating line with our new “HPC” coating (high performance coating). This line comes one piece from the factory for greater strength and smoothness when casting. The big advantage this line will have is on fish that are swimming deeper and it's important that your fly be presented at the proper level. After experimenting with the clear tip or clear lines it's been proven time and time again that an all clear or long clear tip is a definite disadvantage for the angler and also for the guide. They are to hard to see and follow for accurate casts and presentation. I designed a similar line back in the early 80's for Tarpon fishing at Homosassa Springs in Florida. Many seasons have passed by and I had longed for a line such as this for our arsenal. I know you will love this line!

The New TSWS Salt Water Sight Fishing line, with our new “HPC” coating (high performance coating), is designed with saltwater sight fishing in mind. In saltwater sight fishing situations, the "long cast" simply does not exist! Most fish we see are within forty feet and many are much closer. I designed this line with one purpose in mind: sight fishing in saltwater. Its taper will load the rod immediately, get the cast off quickly and will land softly on the water. Here is a line that is destined to become the workhorse of shallow, saltwater fishing. This fly line is superb for mangrove shoreline and saltwater flats fishing. Comes in Orange. |

Captain Bruce Chard, a full time Florida Keys flats guide, FFF casting instructor and fishing photographer has designed a fly line that best handles the conditions needed to cast, present, and fish a heavily weighted fly to the almighty permit. 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. This line does it all!
Also excellent for many similar types of fishing, ranging from Tarpon, Bonefish, Shark, Barracuda and anything else that requires a great presentation with a large fly. Available in sizes 9 - 11 wt. Color: Sky Blue.

Captain Dan Marini Striper LineCaptain Dan Marini, A N.E. saltwater guide. Dan's numerous years of saltwater fly fishing has led to the development of a line that casts smoothly for stripers when depth is necessary. It is 105 feet long and has an intermediate running line for windy situations and a fast sink rate due to a thin diameter dense head. It is also great for blue fish and false albacore. |
