The taper design for our Ghost Tip line was built to excel in both short and long range casting. The extended body and short rear taper allows for more energy to be transferred into your cast for quickly shooting your line. The mid-length front taper turns over a variety of fly sizes without compromising subtle presentations. This line is built in true line size so your rod is never overweighted when carrying a lot of line.
This line is finished in a clear and seafoam color for ultimate stealth out on the flats.
Cleaning your fly line is very important especially when fishing saltwater. Simply pull line off your reel into a clean bucket or tub of freshwater. Put roughly 1oz or more of Cortland’s Line Cleaner solution onto a clean rag or towel. Firmly squeeze the towel with Pro Line Cleaner around the line and slowly pull line through the towel. You should be able to see dirt or discolored streaks on the towel when finished.

In Islamorada, the species we seek on the flats, channel edges and oceanside require us to deliver an accurate cast in a variety of conditions with serious stealth in order to be successful. This line gives me everything I could ask for in a fly line.......the rest is up to me. Thanks again CORTLAND for delivering a great product!
Incredible fly line, I am very satisfied with it, I have been catching snook and tarpon off the beach, very stealthy, this is an incredibly smooth line and flies trough my guides like a rail gun
