Cortland Hover Weight Forward Fly Line – Slow Sinking Trout Fly Line

Cortland Hover Weight Forward Fly Line – Slow Sinking Trout Fly Line

Product description

The Cortland Hover Weight Forward Fly Line is designed for anglers who want to fish their flies immediately beneath the surface without dropping through the water column as quickly as a conventional intermediate line.

A hover line is particularly useful when trout are cruising or feeding in the upper layers, allowing nymphs, buzzers, wet flies and small lures to be presented just under the surface film with excellent control.

The weight-forward taper provides positive rod loading and efficient turnover, making the line comfortable to cast whether you're fishing a single fly or a team. Its slow descent also gives the angler time to experiment with retrieve speed and presentation without the flies rapidly falling below the feeding depth.

On stillwaters and reservoirs, this makes the Cortland Hover a particularly useful line for those occasions when a floating line keeps your flies too high but a standard intermediate sinks them too quickly.

Finished with a front welded loop for straightforward leader attachment and backed by Cortland's long-established fly-line expertise, the Hover fills an important gap in the stillwater angler's selection of lines.
