Quick take
A 100-foot weight forward floating fly line with welded loops, PE core, and PVC cover for freshwater and saltwater fly casting.
This Raprance weight-forward floating fly line is a 7-weight in moss green, 100 feet long, with a woven polyethylene core under a PVC coating. Its welded loops at each end make attaching a leader quick, which suits anglers setting up for bass, panfish or saltwater fly fishing. The weight-forward taper puts the line's mass toward the front, helping it load the rod and carry a fly out to distance.
