Guideline Ultra Compact

Guideline ultra compact

The taper offers controlled and accurate turnover both with long leaders or with the biggest, bulkiest flies in your fly box. The taper construction distributes enough “loading-weight” into the back of the line, making casts with limited backspace easier to perform. This gives a true advantage when fishing heavily overgrown rivers or lakes and coastal areas with obstacles behind you. Because of their short length, these lines have a very concentrated weight that loads the rod effectively.

For maximum rod load, we recommend that you use a set up with for example the #6/7-16gr head on a 6-weight rod.if you prefer a slightly lighter feeling in your casting and fishing, you may choose to “down-size” by for instance using the 16 gram #6/7 head on your 7-weight rod. Both options will work beautifully, but your demands and preferences will decide what is best for you. Ultra compact heads come with factory made tiny-loops in both ends. Color: light blue.
