Royal Wulff Triangle Taper Clear Tip Fly Line

This version of the Triangle Taper features a clear, intermediate tip on a floating line that's ideal for targeting finicky trout in still water scenarios or on spring creeks. The intermediate tip means it's a line that's built for small streamers, emergers, wet flies, and more. This line can also be used for predatory lake fish like Bass, Pike, and others. Whether you're casting smelt patterns right after ice-out in Maine or swinging small flies on a spring creek, this line is efficient and highly capable.

Features

J3 Coating - Royal Wulff's J3 Coating causes the line to sink quicker, shoot farther, and repel water for ultimate performance. The slick coating has a 'dry feel' which helps minimize friction through the guides and increases the life of the line. The line's durability and dirt-repelling capabilities can also be attributed to this coating. The Predator version of this line is available in a clear color scheme for ultimate stealth.

Uses

Delicate Presentations, Roll Casting - The Triangle Taper offers award-winning performance with a unique taper design built for delicate presentations and roll casting at short/medium ranges. The continuous forward taper allows highly efficient energy transfer throughout the cast and industry-leading roll casting abilities. The majority of the weight of the fly line is away from the fly, which leads to the line's superb delicacy and ideal performance for wet flies and swinging small streamers.

Temp

Cold/Moderate - This line is made to be used in cold and moderate climates, including freshwater streams and rivers, lakes, and almost any climate. This line is built with a supple coldwater core and coating that keeps it stiff and durable in cold water. That being said, this line will turn limp in tropical climates and isn't meant to be used in high heat.

Taper/Weight

Continuous Forward Taper - The head of the Triangle Taper Predator ranges from 36 feet to 40 feet, depending on the line size you choose. Unlike any other line, it features a continuous front taper, which means the heaviest part of the head is at the rear and the lightest is in the forward part of the line. This taper promotes wide-ranging performance from streamers to wet flies and everything in between. The 10-12 foot tip of the line sinks at 1.25-1.75 inches per second.
