Fly Line Backing |
|
Fly Line Backing in-stock, no sales tax - $50 orders ship free in USA. |

|
Fly Line Backing is the extra line, which is attached to the rear end of your fly line, which enables you to land fish that can run farther than the length of your fly line. The amount and kind of backing you choose can mean everything when you hunt for trophy fish. |
|
Below is a picture of three different backing materials that are all used
for fishing big game fish. Micron will always have its fan club with the
fresh water and anadromous fish crowd. Master Braid is smaller in
diameter, hard finished and comes back to the reel dry. When you need a
lot of backing stored in a small space, nothing beats TUF Line. As
important is how the backing is attached to the reel and fly line. Each
backing type has it personality and rigs a little differently. We know how! |

| Western Filament TUF LINE XP - Braided Fly Line Backing The standard Big Game Fly Line Backing "Makes Small Reels, Function Bigger" |
 |
|
Possibly the most advanced braided fly line backing available for most applications. TUF LINE is braided from super strong "Gel-Spun" Spectra fibers, TUF LINE XP is incredibly smaller in diameter than equal strength backing braided from Dacron yet is supple and without stretch. XP is braided with a new aerospace technology called "Tension Lock" for even smaller diameter, smoothness and abrasion resistance. Thirty pound test XP is .011 in diameter. That is the same about the same diameter as 8-pound test Maxima Chameleon tippet material. Add another .001 and the strength nearly doubles to 50-pound test. That is the approximate diameter of 10-pound test Maxima. This small diameter increases the backing capacity of every fly reel and reduces backing drag in the water. XP lays down very smooth. There doesn't seem to be any tendency for XP to cut down into itself or case reel spool breakage even when 500 yards are loaded onto a spool. Thirty pound XP is half the diameter of 30-pound Micron. Fifty pound XP is about 2/3 the diameter of 30-pound Micron. You can get more TUF LINE XP on your reel spool. TUF LINE XP is very abrasion resistant, U.V. resistant and has very low stretch. Bright yellow color. |

Cortland Master Braid With almost 100 years of braiding experience and technology, Cortland Line is proud to introduce the next generation of “Premium Super Braid” – Master Braid. A premium super braid constructed using all the best spectra line, but with a unique coating that makes the braid permanently stiff. Master Braid is constructed in a way that makes it rounder, which means less twist and it lays down easier with less possible tangles on the reel. A proprietary Cortland process bonds the color and finish into the fibers of the braid eliminating fading or flaking of the color. With only 4% stretch, small diameter pound/test ratio and a unique hydrophobic coating that slices through the water and comes back dry, this new Master Braid delivers greatly enhanced fishing qualities and and according to many knowledgeable anglers is the best fly line backing obtainable. Bright Yellow. |
