Product details
The Guideline Tropical WF is designed for demanding tropical fly fishing conditions where high temperatures, strong winds, large flies and powerful fish require specialised equipment.
Fully floating, the line features a subtle pale sand colour throughout its entire length, combining good visibility for line management with the stealth required when targeting wary fish.
TROPICAL COATING
The specially developed hard tropical PVC coating maintains the necessary stiffness and casting performance in high temperatures. It also provides excellent resistance to abrasion from sand and salt while remaining smooth and manageable.
A very low-stretch braided core provides excellent control and responsiveness.
POWERFUL AND ACCURATE TAPER
The high-energy front taper efficiently turns over larger flies and delivers fast, accurate casts in windy conditions. A progressive rear taper also allows anglers to carry more line when additional distance is required.
All models feature a 12-metre head.
