This is our most popular fly line for NZ conditions. We stock it in dull olive although it's available in a pale peach colour also. The line is great for everything from small streams up to large rivers. The taper is really a classic trout taper, it's easy to cast, lands on the water nicely but also when the wind picks up it has plenty of power to punch through. Buoyancy seems to be improved on the first ridge lines and the running lines are slightly thinner so you'll find it easier to shoot line. (Rene Vaz - Manic Tackle)
Basically if your looking for an olive coloured line in weights 3 - 7 then go no further.
Developed on four continents by some of the world’s finest anglers, Ridge Tactical trout represents the combined efforts of our Pro Staff who’ve helped fine tune Ridge technology to create the ultimate trout flyline.
Combined TDC creates a true hi buoyancy variable density tip – this line will amaze you in heavy current – it’s so buoyant you’ll think its wearing water wings. Looped at tip and butt with our super smooth ‘No Step Down’ welds, buoyancy will remain throughout the lifetime of the line – no capillary action here to suck the tip down.
Finally the Power Core, low stretch braided chassis converts casting energy with minimal losses, helping you deliver your fly with precision even when the winds blow.
- Ridged XT Coating – minimal surface contact with rod guides
- Hi Float Tip – TDC variable density technology
- Power Core – High energy and low memory
- Micro Loop – super smooth integrated welded loops
