Cortland Compact Sink Type 9 Fly Line

When the big, toothy critters are lurking in the depths, you need a line that can dive deep and deliver your fly with precision.

This line is engineered to turn over the bulkiest of flies without breaking a sweat, thanks to its 28 ft. sinking head and aggressive front taper.

Master the Depths with Cortland Compact Sink Type 9 Fly Line

With an impressive sink rate of 8-9 inches per second (IPS), this line ensures your streamers plunge into the strike zone swiftly. The short front taper punches through wind, propelling air-resistant patterns where lesser lines would falter. Meanwhile, the brief back taper facilitates rapid loading, allowing you to make quick, accurate casts when it counts.

The seamless transition from sinking head to intermediate running line eliminates hinging, providing smooth entry into the water column. This dual-tone line not only aids in detecting subtle takes but also remains stealthy beneath the surface—perfect for wary predators in both freshwater and saltwater scenarios.

Fly Fishing for Muskies and Pikes: A Game Changer

Cortland's proprietary Shooting Technology coats this line to stay slicker than a weasel on ice meaning more distance with less effort every time you shoot that line out. And let's talk about hook sets; with Cortland's low stretch braided nylon core, they're as solid as a handshake from Paul Bunyan himself.

This isn't just any fly line; it's a strategic weapon for those who pursue giants beneath the waves. Whether you're casting into freshwater haunts or braving salty shores, this Cortland Compact Sink Type 9 Fly Line is built tough—with a monofilament core—to handle whatever comes thrashing at your fly.
