Floating Fly Lines

Scientific Anglers pioneering work with 3M Microballoons™ revolutionized the way fly lines float, and they continue to use this breakthrough technology in all of their floating fly lines. They also employ advanced hydrophobic agents that help repel water and increase floatation, which is further enhanced by the way Scientific Anglers entraps air inside the fly line core. AST – Advanced Shooting Technology – is 3M's patented dry-slick coating that prevents dirt and algae from clinging to the line, which allows their fly lines to stay cleaner and float higher for longer intervals. No other floating fly lines provide so many clear and unique technological and performance advantages.
