Unlock the Potential of Your Single-Handed Fly Rod with Single Handed Fly Lines

A good fly line isn’t just a fishing line – it’s the vital connection between you, your fly rod, and the elusive fish you seek. That’s why we offer a carefully curated selection of single-handed fly lines to suit a variety of fishing styles, rod types, and water conditions.

Navigating the world of fly lines can be overwhelming, but we are here to guide you through the different types of lines available and help you find the one that perfectly complements your single-handed fly rod.

Choosing the Right Single-Handed Fly Line

Here are some key factors to consider when selecting a single-handed fly line:

Line Weight: Line weight refers to the diameter of the line, and it needs to be matched to the weight rating of your rod. A heavier line will overpower a lighter rod, hindering casting performance, while a lighter line won’t load a heavier rod properly, limiting casting distance and accuracy. We stock lines in a range of weights to suit the most popular single-handed fly rod configurations.

Line Type: There are three main types of fly lines to consider:

• Floating Lines: The most versatile choice for calm or slow-moving water. They allow your flies to fish at the surface or just below, perfect for dry flies, emergers, and some nymphs.
• Sinking Lines: Ideal for deeper water or fast-moving currents. Sinking lines come in various sink rates, allowing you to present flies at specific depths. These are great for streamers, weighted nymphs, and wets.
• Spey Lines: Designed for single-handed Spey casting, a specialised technique for tight quarters or reaching distant fish. Spey lines feature a unique weight distribution that facilitates long, powerful casts.

Line Length: Most single-handed fly lines come in lengths between 85ft and 100ft. The ideal length depends on your fishing style and the size of the water body you’re fishing. For smaller streams, a shorter line might be more manageable, while larger rivers or lakes might benefit from a longer line.
