It’s become apparent to us here at the shop, that the new Bonefish Quickshooter Fly Line is the new top seller among tropical, saltwater anglers, especially those hunting up bonefish on the flats. Not only is this the new go-to fly line for anglers new to bonefishing, it is also a big hit with those on the experienced end. There’s one major reason why. As its name implies, the line arrives on target very quickly, from start to finish.
Bonefishing success demands short reaction time. You see the fish. The fish is moving. You need to get your fly there, immediately, before the fish has slid on past. This is the idea behind this new fly line. At only 35 ½ feet long, this short head helps anglers to load their rod with only one or two false casts before going for distance. The way I figure it, why waste time trying to work line out with false cast after false cast, while continuing to adjust the angle of delivery, when you can pick a spot immediately, and send it there? The panel at the latest IFTD Show might agree, as they awarded this line, “Top new saltwater fly line for 2013” honors.
