Airflo Fly Lines

Airflo Fly Lines are the result of the brand's unwavering commitment to innovation and environmental responsibility.

As a pioneer in using polyurethane (PU) in place of traditional PVC, Airflo lines are celebrated for their superior durability, low stretch core, and long lasting slickness.

Their core technologies are designed to provide a tangible advantage on the water:

Airflo's Power Core is an ultra-low stretch core that delivers exceptional sensitivity, allowing you to feel subtle takes and achieve faster, more positive hook sets.

Paired with this is SuperFlo Max technology, a proprietary coating that provides the slickest and most durable surface for effortless casting distance. This coating also ensures floating lines stay high on the surface while resisting dirt and cracking for long lasting performance.

Airflo's extensive range of fly lines is designed for every possible scenario. Whether you're targeting trout in a local loch, casting for salmon on a powerful river, or pursuing aggressive predator and saltwater species, Airflo has a specialist line to match your needs.

Airflo Fly Line Types


Freshwater

A dedicated "freshwater" fly line is a type of fishing line specifically designed for fly fishing in freshwater environments such as lakes, lochs, rivers or streams.


Saltwater

Specialist "saltwater" fly lines are specially designed for fly fishing in saltwater environments, featuring a stiffer, more durable construction and often heavier weights to handle larger fish and windy conditions.

As for tropical fly lines, they differ from regular saltwater fly lines primarily in their material composition and coating. Tropical lines are designed to perform in extremely warm conditions, typical of tropical environments. They have a stiffer construction to prevent them from becoming too limp and sticky in hot weather, which can affect casting performance and line management. Regular saltwater lines, while also durable and often stiffer than freshwater lines, may not maintain their stiffness and slickness in such high temperatures, making tropical lines a more specialized choice for anglers in very warm climates.


Stillwater

A good "stillwater" fly line is designed specifically for fly fishing in calm, non-flowing waters like lakes and ponds with dedicated performance that feature longer, smoother casts and specialised tapers to enhance presentation and depth control.


Two Handed (Spey Casting Lines)

A dedicated "two-handed" (Spey casting) fly line is specifically designed for use with two-handed fly rods, offering longer length heads and specialised spey cast tapers to facilitate the unique casting techniques and greater distances achieved in Spey casting on rivers.


Airflo Fly Line Technology


Non-Stretch Core

Airflo's non-stretch core technology, known as Super-Dri, is a significant advancement. Unlike traditional fly lines that have a certain degree of stretch, Airflo's non-stretch lines offer direct contact with the fly and increased sensitivity. This results in better hook setting, more efficient casting, and improved accuracy, as the angler can feel more of what's happening at the end of the line.


Polyurethane Coating

Airflo fly lines are unique in their use of polyurethane (PU) in the line coating, as opposed to the more common PVC. This PU coating is more durable, UV-resistant, and environmentally friendly. It also allows for a wider range of temperatures in which the line can perform effectively.


Micro-Loop Technology

Modern fly lines often feature micro-loop technology at both ends, providing smoother connections and transitions between the fly line and the leader or backing. This integrated loop technology is a huge time saver as fitting braided loops can be frustrating.


Ridge Technology

Airflo incorporates Ridge Technology in many of its lines, which reduces the line's surface area in contact with the rod guides. This minimizes friction, allowing for longer casts and reduced tangling.


Density Compensated

For their sinking lines, Airflo uses density compensation to ensure a more uniform sink rate, aiding in keeping the fly at the desired depth more consistently. Airflo also offer "sweep" sinking fly line technology allowing the angler to search through the water column more effectively.
