The Cortland Tropic Plus All Purpose Taper Fly Line is built for anglers who want one saltwater fly line that can handle a wide range of tropical flats species. Designed for bonefish, permit, tarpon, snook, redfish, milkfish, triggerfish, and more, this floating line delivers smooth casting performance in hot, demanding saltwater environments.
Built with a 41-foot head and a 27-foot extended body, the Tropic Plus All Purpose Taper excels at both short and long-range presentations. The 7-foot front taper helps turn over a variety of fly sizes while still allowing subtle presentations, and the 7-foot back taper transfers energy efficiently for superior shootability in windy conditions.
Cortland’s signature Tropic Plus coating is designed to remain slick, supple, and fast shooting in the hottest tropical temperatures. The monofilament core provides dependable warmwater performance, while the Sand and Blue color combination helps distinguish the taper change and blend naturally into flats environments.
