The Guideline Bullet+ WF fly line is your top choice for streamer-, sea trout- or salmon fishing with singlehanded rods. It is virtually unaffected by wind and larger flies and shoots like a bullet.
On top of that it has great balance and despite the short head it doesn’t collapse during flight. The taper-design reduces any disturbance in the loop and sends the line flying with a minimum of false casts. A 9.25 m long head and a 3.0 metre long, level handling line behind the back taper make the line forgiving and versatile. It will cast far with good control and little effort. Spey casting properties are excellent and the line is super effective when fishing in tight and overgrown rivers. It is also popular in lake or coast situations where room for back cast is a bit restricted.
Bullet+ has a head length of 9.25m/30ft and a total length of 30m/98ft, it is ideally suited for mid-long-range work. The powerful 5.5m/18’ long front taper delivers uncompromised turnover and presentations of all fly types. The belly has the weight concentrated towards the back, to make it an ideal line for streams and smaller to medium sized rivers. It has a 1.8 m/5,9’ back taper that is long enough to stabilize at long range and yet, still short enough to make the line highly suitable for spey casts. The back taper transforms into a comfortable 3.0 metres long ”handling line” before the thinner shooting line kicks in.
The handling line is a slightly thicker part of the running line which makes your loops a bit more rigid. It also adds flexibility to how much line you can manage in the air, the so called overhang, when your whole head length is outside the rod tip. Therefore becoming a bit less sensitive if you miss the sweet spot. It also adds strength to the most vulnerable part of the line that takes a lot of strain when you are double hauling. The bright green colour of the running line extends half way up onto the back taper. This indicates the lines so called sweet spot to keep outside the rod tip, and where the line performs at its best. It is looped in both ends and has a laser ID marking in the front. Total length of the line is 30 m/98 feet in all sizes.
