FAQS
Use a fly line specifically designed for saltwater fly fishing, matched to your rod weight. If you’re targeting larger fish in deep water on a windy day, you may need to choose a line that is a weight or two heavier than your rod. If you’re not sure what kind of line to use, check with your local fly shop. We’ve developed several saltwater fishing lines to perform in specific conditions, such as cold water, tropics, or for big game fishing, so anglers can expect refined performance from their saltwater lines. We also offer superb all-purpose saltwater lines as well. You’ll find them all in this collection.
The size fly line you use for saltwater will match the weight of your rod.
Technically, yes, you can use a normal (freshwater) fly line in saltwater, but don’t expect the same results. Saltwater fly lines are developed and designed to handle the density of saltwater and its corrosive power.
Saltwater fly line is different from freshwater fly line in sink rate, taper, color, and material. Saltwater lines must have a faster sink rate to get through the denser water. Saltwater lines also have a longer front taper to accommodate greater depths, and they’re designed from materials to withstand the corrosive effects of salt exposure. Saltwater fly lines are different colors than freshwater fly lines in order to blend with tropical or deep sea water tones.
