Sinking Tip Fly Line (5wt)

So far, I’m impressed. I picked up a 4wt floating and a 6wt intermediate and both feel really nice. Welded loops look to be high quality, butt end is clearly labeled, feel like very slick and supple line. I’m yet to throw them, but first impression is excellent. I have a 6wt reel with SA Amplitude Trout, which is quite spendy, and thus far, quality seems comparable.And they come with a sweet fly box! Hard to go wrong there.My only gripe was that it got all tangled up like crazy when I went to spool it. After I fought with it and finally got it spooled, I checked my email and there were instructions from BFW. Duh.So...if I have a complaint, and I don’t really, it’s that maybe the instructions should ship with the line so overexcited man-children like winter muck it all up like a greedy kid on Christmas morning.Otherwise, cheers!

Good for the price. I bought the sink tip and works like it should so far. Will see how it holds up. Fly box is nice.

Just received this order today. I was happily surprised that they packed the flyline in one of their waterproof double sided fly boxes. A very high quality fly box that will be perfect for holding my game changers and other essential bass flies. I have not taken it out on the water yet due to 3 more weeks of tax season, but I have dry casted in the parking lot. Casts great, can't wait to get this on the water chasing bass. Tight lines to everyone.

The only reason I hive this 4 stars is because the sink rate seems to be a little slower than what was answered in the Q&A area. It seems like this sinks at a rate 3 ips. I was hoping for more in the 4-6 ips range. Aside from that, the line is super smooth and in the 5wt it casts my woolly buggers and sculpzilla patterns with ease. The line came packaged as described and I somehow got it tangled up as I put it on my spool, but a little patience and persistence (required traits of all anglers) I was able to get it on my spool. The line casts beautifully with my 5wt Redington. The loops look great and I am able to grip it easily which results in great line control. The fly box seems to be of goo quality. It's perfect as I just increased my fly count last week.TL;DRPros: Smooth line, great for line management, casts with ease, weighted correctly for 5 wt, Fly box is a great bonusCons: Sink rate seems a little slow, can get messy when spooling upOver all, this is a superb fly line for the price.

Great line for sinking flies down to the fish. Casts well with midsize streamers and really the only thing that could make this line better would be welded loops on both ends. Still a real good line for the money and a sealed fly box is an awesome bonus.

Guys. The fly box was great but with no spool for the line it was a bear to put on the reel!! I ended up with a rats nest the size of Toledo!! Keep the box include a spool…

I purchased one of these lines and they are great. Cast very well, slides through guides with ease, love the color and black tip and are well worth the money. I have just order another one in 8wt. Besides getting a free very nice fly box. Great product.

Casts well. I discovered that the black section is the sinking tip. Originally, I thought it was the end to attach the backing line.
