444 Sylk

I was having a lot of trouble finding the proper line for my new bamboo rod. It is classed as a 4 but my 4 wt line I had wouldn't cast. I tried a heavy 5 wt and I could tell it was too much for the rod. I bought some real silk in 5 wt what a waste of money. Cortland suggested 444 Sylk and I bought a 5wt. It works great. Very smooth.

I ordered the line because of reviews of other bamboo fly rod fishers. I have not been able to fish with the line but yard casting the line made the rod come alive.

This is my third Sylk line. It's great and it's not just for Bamboo.

Very smooth and supple line. It doesn’t load well for long casts, but it’s discrete and stealthy. Which when paired with accurate casts makes more of an impact when needed vs long casting.
