FAQs

What is the difference between the Hover and Clear models?

The Hover model has a sinking rate of 1.0 ips (inches per second), while the Clear model sinks at 1.5 ips. Choose the model that best suits your fishing conditions and desired depth.

How often should I clean my fly line?

Clean your fly line after each use, or at least every few outings, to remove dirt, debris, and any buildup that can affect performance.

What is the advantage of a multicolor fly line?

The multicolor design aids in visual tracking of the line, making it easier to see where your fly is and detect strikes.

Can I use this fly line for saltwater fishing?

While designed for lake fishing, rinsing the line thoroughly after saltwater use can help prevent damage. However, it's recommended to use lines specifically designed for saltwater conditions.

How do I store my fly line?

Store your fly line in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid storing it in a tightly coiled position for extended periods.

What line weight should I use?

The line weight should match the weight rating of your fly rod. Consult your rod's specifications to determine the correct line weight (WF5-8 for this line).

Troubleshooting

Line tangling or knotting during casting.

Check for any kinks or damage to the line. Ensure your leader is properly attached. Adjust your casting technique to avoid slack in the line.

Difficulty achieving desired casting distance.

Check that the line weight matches your rod. Practice your casting technique and ensure you are using a smooth, consistent motion. Consider using a line dressing to improve slickness.

Line sinking too quickly.

Ensure you are using the correct model (Hover vs. Clear) for your fishing conditions. Clean the line regularly to remove dirt and debris, which can affect buoyancy.
