FLY LINES,
PHOENIX Handmade Silk Fly Lines
Phoenix have been making their superb handmade lines for more than 20 years.
These are modern, carefully made and designed silk lines that offer real advantages and an alternative to, modern synthetics.
Technical Details
The special ‘proofing’ of the braid gives no ‘reel’ memory and only minimum stretch to aid better hooking.
The oils and varnishes ensure that the line is waterproof and supple. The Phoenix Line is so stable so that it does not leach linseed oil and become tacky with age.
The special finish produces a line that shoots well, with the minimum of flash and maximises the added advantage of silk, which gives a smaller diameter for a given weight.
A double tapered profile enables reversal of the line for longer use.
The Standard Line – Trout
A 30 yard line available in Natural straw, or Mere Green colour. Double tapered with fine tips and a precise 6 foot taper at both ends to allow reversal of the line. Made of the finest pure silk, natural straw colour, proofed with several coats of a special varnish and hand polished. The line comes complete with care instructions and a tin of Red Mucilin.
Available in line weights 1 to 10.
