This line excels in medium-to-long distances with dry flies and smaller nymphs and streamers and is designed specifically for chasing trout. The AST Plus slickness additive makes it a terrific shooting line and increases durability. The front taper and belly have specific textures to help the front taper float higher and the belly cast longer. Between the belly asnd the running line, there is a tactile reference point texture to signal the optimal castinglength. The line's compound taper helps your casts land more delicately. For line length and color, see Other Details (tab to right).
