The InSight
REEL Fly Fishing specializes in quality fly lines that offer you specific tapers, designs, and abilities for each of the ranges. The top-end InSight series weight forward floating line is a versatile line that lends itself well to both nymph and dry fly fishing in freshwater. The 30ft head weight for the InSight series leans towards an overweighted grain of the AFFTA approved fly line weight specifications. This unique taper translates into a line that offers easy loading on medium-fast to fast action fly rods and is a great option for fly casters of a more adept level. Fast to extra-fast fly rods generally require a heavier weighted/grained fly line to easily and effectively load them.
The Taper
The weight-forward taper on the InSight series is the ultimate line for the river and still water fly angler. The taper has a shortened head design offering quicker loading and improved accuracy, while the moderate length belly lends itself well to performing longer casts with an accurate presentation wrapped up in one fly line. The longer front taper and shorter read taper allow you to accurately shoot outline when needed but also turn over nymphs and strike indicators. The 30ft head weight on the InSight range is even heavier than that of the Gold series, however, the overall head weight is lighter, this results in a fly line that gives exceptional results when distance casting as opposed to the more generalized taper in the Gold series.
The InSight range also features a host of specialized additives to the outer coating that further increase slickness, reduce friction, and increase line speed while passing through the guides.
The Core
All our fly lines at RF Fishing make use of a multi-strand braided core construction. The advantages of our braided core technology mean no stretch, no memory, and vastly improved feedback into your fly rod and hands. PE or Polyethylene is an incredibly strong fiber that is used in braided fishing lines as well as in the RF Fishing fly line cores. Braided fibers offer high strength to weight and diameter rations but also give fly lines some rigidity or backbone. Utilizing the rigidity provided by braid we can adjust them for each specific fly fishing line giving you the best performance in each respective area.
Please check our fly line breakdown in the articles/blog section on the store. You will find useful advice as to pairing the correct line to your fly rod and skill level as well as the official breakdown of AFFTA on fly line grains and specifications.

I’m a fan of the 3 colour system on this line. Easy casting – with the added feature of enabling accurate distance control. Damn sexy colours too.

One of the easiest fly lines to cast. I’m still very new to fly fishing and this was the first time I was able to cast a line all the way out onto the running line without much effort. Also it looks super cool with the three colour system!
