When And Why You Need A Double-Taper Fly Line | Tip of the Week #15

Untangled: Fly Fishing For Everyone | Ventures Fly Co.

There are two main types of fly lines - weight-forward and doube-taper. But what do those words mean? And when would you want to use one versus the other? Today on Untangled, we'll tackle everything to know about the differences between these lines, as well as getting into when and why you might want to use them. We'll also talk about the importance of matching your fly line to your rod, and what makes a fly line "good" or "bad."
