Fly Lines

100 yards of dacron backing with thin diameter and low friction. 20 lb.

Cortland's NEW Euro Nymph Braid Core line.

Built with a super thin, strong and sensitive braided core, and offered in both level and double taper versions, this line will transmit the most sensitive of takes right through the system to your line holding hand. Its ultra-thin diameter will launch your bugs in exactly the direction you need them to go, and its great cast ability will ensure that longer range nymphing problems become a thing of the past.

Bamboo color. Built to FIPS Mouche standards, but designed to simply catch fish, the Mastery Competition Nymph line is as simple as it gets: 80 feet of level line, in either a floating or an intermediate density. It doesn't matter if you're in an international competition, or just trying to outdo yourself, the Competition Nymph line will perform, fish after fish. Specifically designed for European-style nymphing, if you're looking for the thinnest, most sensitive line available, look no further.

The first series of lines to feature the revolutionary AST PLUS slickness additive, the Amplitude series will shoot farther and last longer than any other line on the market. It’s slickness down to a science.

The conventional wisdom in fly fishing is that there’s no such thing as a “do it all” freshwater line. We have something to say about that. The Amplitude Infinity has the power to bomb out streamers, yet retains delicacy for dry flies. It mends like an absolute dream, and delivers flies at all distances. Built a half-size heavy, with a long head and substantial front taper, it’s perfect for everything from trout and panfish to pike and steelhead. There’s a reason we call it the Infinity: there is no end to what you’ll be able to do with it.

• Features the revolutionary AST Plus slickness additive for superior shooting ability and increased durability
• Floating Texture on the tip section for the ultimate in flotation; it simply keeps dry flies floating longer
• Shooting Texture running line delivers longer casts, thanks to a reduction in friction
• Extremely versatile general-purpose taper designed for most freshwater species; an excellent line for trout, grayling, panfish, bass, carp, steelhead, salmon, and pike
• Made a half-size heavy to load fast-action rods, but works well with a variety of rod actions
• Extended head length for long-distance casts and superior mending ability

When fishing stillwaters, midges are important flies. Just as important is the element of stealth. The SONAR Stillwater Emerger Tip addresses both of these factors handily.

Designed for tossing multiple flies and long leaders to wary fish cruising just beneath the surface, the Emerger Tip’s floating running line and short, clear intermediate tip allows anglers to fish with supreme line control and just enough stealth to get the job done.

• Designed specifically for the demands of stillwater anglers

Sure, the SONAR Stillwater Parabolic Sink sounds scientific, and that’s because it is. These lines sink in a U-shape through the water column, suspending flies just below the bottom and creating enticing action with each strip. Built with 10- and 20-foot textured hang markers, these lines are a stillwater angler’s dream and something many fish will never have seen before.

So you know where the fish are holding. You’ve done your research. But you just don’t know how deep they are. Luckily, the SONAR Titan Sink Tip fly line offers a variety of solutions for all of your depth-finding needs. Just below the surface? Try the Sink 3. Holding steady in the shadowy depths? Get the Sink 6. Experimentation is the name of the game, so maybe it makes sense to try them both. Built on our popular Titan profile to allow you to turn over even the biggest streamers while you’re searching for the biggest fish.

• Two line sizes heavy for loading quickly and delivering the biggest flies to the furthest targets; use designated line weight for your rod
• Excellent turnover due to short, powerful head
• The perfect streamer line for boat or wade fishing

Here’s an idea: instead of spending $100 on a trout line, pick up a Frequency Trout fly line and use the rest on your next drive-all-night road trip. The Trout taper features a versatile, mid-length head ideal for delicate dries; however, it also provides great line control for nymph rigs. If you’re a trout angler, this is your Frequency.

With the unrivaled success of the Amplitude Textured fly lines these new premium Amplitude Smooth lines are the industry leader in smooth lines. We took our patented AST Plus Slickness additive and put it into the brand-new Amplitude Smooth Series. While these lines are smooth like a traditional line, they have increased durability and slickness due to the proprietary AST Plus additive. This revolutionary material is integrated directly into our coatings that retains its slickness for the life of the line.

Each line is built with three colors to identify the separate parts of the line, welded loops for quick and simple rigging and includes SA ID for easy line identification. Scientific Angler’s Amplitude Smooth lines are simply the highest performance smooth fly lines in the world.

A great all-around floating line. Weight forward taper, high floating.

This line has been developed to fish buzzers and nymphs at the steepest angle possible. We call it fishing the plug hole. The line has 18" of sink 5 tip at the end of a high buoyancy floating line. This sink 5 tip will hinge in the water forcing the cast into a vertical plain. The steeper the angle we create generally the better our buzzers or nymphs work when targeting buzzer feeding fish. When natural buzzers hatch their assent through the water is on a very steep plain. This line has been developed and tested to mimic this vertical assent. Getting this angle correct makes a huge difference to catch rate. The Buzzer Lock-Up has been developed using the latest line technology available to a very high standard. The main body of the line is a soft spook free olive with a blue 18" sink 5 tip. We have engineered a very small amount of stretch into this line as often takes are very aggressive however when using this line your cast may be quite deep so we need some feeling transmitted through the core. The Buzzer Lock-Up also makes an excellent midge tip line especially good in windy conditions. When fishing the washing line the short sink 5 tip will bite in giving you more control and also present the flies in an unusual manner than what the fish are used to seeing. Line 105' long.

Booby flies are particularly effective in stillwater fishing situations. However, they need unique setups to fish them properly. We created a 5-foot floating Booby Tip that attaches to the end of any sinking fly line with a loop-to-loop connection, providing enough flotation to suspend Booby flies just above the bottom, away from any snags, right where the fish will be looking for them.

• 5’ floating tip designed to be used with sinking lines to keep leaders and flies suspended off the bottom, away from debris or weeds
• Looped on both ends for easy rigging
• Especially effective with Booby-style flies

How can something be clear and camouflaged? That’s easy. We took a mottled core, doused it with our new, supple clear coating, and we had the SONAR Stillwater Clear Camo. Designed for the unique demands of stillwater angling, the Clear Camo simply disappears beneath the surface, and features a slow, intermediate sink rate to tempt fish sitting just below the chop.

• Designed specifically for the demands of stillwater anglers
• Based on popular MPX taper
• Overweighted by a full line weight for multiple flies and long leaders

The Frequency Full Sink is the perfect sinking fly line for stillwater anglers; it handles streamers and wet flies with aplomb, cuts through the wind, and features a mid-length head for great line control. We built the Frequency Full Sink with two sink rates and the idea that great subsurface lines don’t have to cost a fortune.

• Especially effective for fishing streamers
• Thin diameter cuts through wind
• Ideal for use in stillwater situations
• Front welded loop on Sink 3; Sink 6 includes braided loop connection
