Quick take

An 85-foot weight-forward floating fly line for larger streamer and heavy-fly presentations.

This is a floating weight forward fly line in size 7, suited to casting larger bass flies and warmwater streamers. Its 85-foot length gives plenty of running line for the back cast and the presentation, and the welded loop on the front end makes leader changes quick. The green and yellow finish is easy to follow on the water as light changes.

Best for

  • Casting larger streamers and pike flies
  • Fast-action or heavier fly rods
  • Situations where distance casting matters

Skip if

  • You fish only dry flies and nymphs
  • You want delicate presentations

Strengths

  • Weight-forward taper loads rods quickly for distance
  • Welded loop makes leader attachment fast and secure
  • Multiple colors help visibility in changing light

Trade-offs

  • WF7 weight limits use on lighter rod actions
  • Heavier line is less delicate than smaller tapers
  • Eighty-five feet is minimum length for many spools
