Most days on your favorite trout stream, you'll try a handful of tactics you might start by floating dries, or you might flip a nymph rig through some riffles, or maybe you'll rip a streamer through some slack water. The Orvis Hydros Trout Fly Line was built to handle exactly this type of variety. The smooth, weight-forward taper handles all techniques well, while a long head means it casts easily, has exceptional loop stability, and is easy to mend when fishing streams. AST Slickness sheds dirt, algae, and other gunk so it stays clean, meaning longer casts, higher float, and better all-around performance. A color change 30' from the tip makes it easy to gauge how much line is out, while Orvis Line ID means you can see at a glance which line you've got spooled. Dual welded loops provide a seamless transition between backing and leader, plus they allow for super-easy rigging changes. The braided monofilament core excels in cold to moderate water temperatures such as those you find whopper trout thriving in. 45'L head. 90' total length.
