Quick take
A weight-forward floating fly line with textured coating for improved casting control and line management.
The SharkWave is a 7-weight floating fly line with a textured tip, an extra-long belly for short to medium casts, and good long-range line control. Its textured surface helps the head float high and pick up off the water, and the color coding shows where the rear taper ends. It suits anglers who want a floating line that shoots well on a trout or bass fly rod.
