FAQ
Cleaning your fly line is very important especially when fishing saltwater. Simply pull line off your reel into a clean bucket or tub of freshwater. Put roughly 1oz or more of Cortland’s Line Cleaner solution onto a clean rag or towel. Firmly squeeze the towel with Pro Line Cleaner around the line and slowly pull line through the towel. You should be able to see dirt or discolored streaks on the towel when finished.

Type six for getting line to the bottom
what I like about the type six lines is that these lines sink quickly in fast powerful rivers like New Zealand Tongariro River.
My catch rate is much better than when I am using a nymphing floating line so much so on this river I am hooked on a type 6 full sinking line. getting to the bottom is critical to getting to the Rainbow trout on the Tongariro River.

Cortland 444 Full Sinking Type 6
Don’t be misled by the fact that 444 full sinking type 6 is an old fly line that has been manufactured for a long time. This fly line is still one of the best sinking lines on the market. The fly line is very easy to handle and the stability is excellent. The classification is a bit low. Therefore, an # 8 fly line to a # 7 rod is recommended. If you want an excellent sinking fly line for long distance, here is a hint. Cut the fly line so you get a 40 feet belly and replace the old running line with a monofilament nylon running line. With this modification, it is possible to reach a distance of 120 feet quite easily.
