NEW! SCIENTIFIC ANGLERS "SHARKSKIN" ULTIMATE TROUT TAPER FLY LINES - Sharkskin technology is a precise texturing process that embosses the surface of the fly line coating with a repeating geometric micro-pattern to achieve surface interface properties that mimic nature - such as the ability of insects to walk on water and the shedding and self-cleaning ability of Lotus leaves. The finished surface is no longer smooth, no longer exhibits unwanted line flash, and yields greatly improved line-to-water floatation, casting performance, and overall line suppleness and durability. Sharkskin changes the meniscus force balance that up until now, holds all other floating fly lines at close to a neutral buoyancy within the line-water interface... essentially 1/2 the line is above the surface and 1/2 the line is below the surface. Sharkskin's micro texture greatly increases the upward meniscus force through a combination of the water's interaction with the new surface and the trapping of air into the valleys of the texture. The result is an over 200% improvement in resistance of the line to be forced into the water... .effectively improving "floatation" of the line significantly beyond anything that can be achieved through addition of glass bubbles or surface chemistries. The line sits higher in the water - less drag, easier mending, easier roll casting, easier pick-ups, and less water spray. Line friction in the guides is reduced significantly, shoot distance is increased allowing longer, easier casts - even on the hottest days, or when the line is dirty. The engineered micro-repeating pattern effectively introduces flex points that increase the suppleness of the line, and in lab testing, the durability and resistance to cracking is up to 3X greater than all other lines tested. WF3F thru WF8F in COLORS: (1)Chartreuse, (2)Blue-Heron. $99.95
