Fly line floating guideline CONTROL 3.0 - WF

HIGH LINE SPEEDS AND EASY LOADING OF THE FLY ROD

The CONTROL 3.0 fly line is made with the novice/intermediate caster in mind and has a design that generates high line speed and easy contact with the rod. Learning the double haul is a lot easier with shorter head fly lines like this. The CONTROL 3.0 is suitable for fishing with all kinds of flies and are great for both river and lake fishing. The taper reminds a lot of the Fario Tactical but is a bit shorter and therefore even easier to manage for all level of casters. This is an excellent entry level fly line with a great price and value, perfect for small to medium sized rivers. It is also a great tool for fishing where you have less space for back casts.

TAPER DESIGN

The CONTROL 3.0 is a modern WF line with a short head length, featuring a long, continuous front taper backed by a shorter, level belly section that produces a noticeable load in the line. A medium length back taper improves the ease of handling. A further help for the good line control is the 3 m long handling line between the back taper and the running line. This section makes it possible to hold a bit more than the head length outside the rod tip without losing control when you cast.
