Airflo Stillwater Smooth Clear Intermediate Fly Line

The main advantage is stealth. The clear coating makes the line nearly invisible underwater, which is crucial for not spooking wary fish, especially in clear water conditions.

It is best suited for stillwater fishing (lakes, ponds) and slower sections of rivers where clear presentation is important. It's ideal for targeting trout, bass, and other predatory fish that can be easily spooked.

An intermediate sink rate means the line sinks very slowly, typically at a rate of about 1-1.5 inches per second. This allows you to fish effectively in the upper to mid-water columns.

Rinse with fresh water after use, wipe dry, and periodically clean with mild soap or a dedicated line cleaner. Store loosely coiled away from sunlight.

The ultra-supple core is designed to remain flexible even in cooler temperatures, making it suitable for use in cold water conditions without becoming stiff and difficult to handle.

The clear core provides maximum invisibility throughout the entire line. The camo core offers invisibility in the coated section but may have a slightly different visual profile in the core, potentially aiding in tracking for some anglers in specific conditions.

While clear underwater, the line's visibility to the angler can vary with light conditions. The clear coating is generally visible, but in very low light, tracking it might be slightly more challenging than a brightly colored line.

Stretch the line gently by hand or by walking it out. Store loosely coiled. A line cleaner may help reduce memory.

Ensure the line weight matches the rod. Check for knots or damage. Warm the line slightly before casting. Ensure proper casting technique.

This is an intermediate line; its sink rate is designed for a slow descent. If you need a different rate, consider a different line class (e.g., full sinking or floating).

Clean the line thoroughly with a line cleaner and apply a line dressing if recommended. Check for physical damage to the coating.
