adh-fishing Test: Vision Hero Nymph Line

The wide range of Vision includes everything you need for modern nymph fishing. The cool brand from Finland offers rods, reels, and the right accessories to dive into the exciting world of Euro Nymphing. And with the Hero Nymph Line, Vision now offers a very interesting and attractively priced level line that you can use extremely versatile on creeks and rivers. We tested the thin-diameter nymph line for you and present it to you in this video. Watch us nymph fish for trout and grayling and see for yourself the advantages of the Vision Hero Nymph!

The Vision Hero Nymph Line is a specially designed fly line for Euro Nymphing. With its level line design and outstanding material properties, it is the ideal choice for fly fishers seeking precision and efficiency – without wanting to forego a fly line.

Smooth Coating

The Vision Hero Nymph Line features an extremely smooth coating that ensures minimal friction resistance. This enables precise casts and easy handling. Tip: You can also easily use this level line as a running line, e.g. for coastal fishing.

Low Diameter

The small diameter of the line improves sensitivity and reduces slack. This allows even fine takes to be directly transmitted. Furthermore, the line supports quick hook setting. The diameter of 0.59 mm allows this line to be used in competitions, as it meets the specifications of FIPS Mouche (International Sport Fly Fishing Federation).

Subtle Color

The line is held in an unobtrusive color that is barely noticeable in the water. This reduces the spooking effect on fish and increases the chances of catching, especially in clear waters.

Low Stretch

Thanks to its low stretch, the Vision Hero Nymph Line offers a high level of feedback. Delicate takes are effectively transmitted and can be felt very precisely in combination with the appropriate leader and a sensitive Euro Nymph rod.

Versatility

Although the Vision Hero Nymph is a level line without a classic taper, it is surprisingly easy to cast. It is suitable for line classes #0 to #5 and is especially fun on rods with a fine tip. Even casting dry flies was no problem for us with this line. You can quickly switch from your Euro Nymphing setup if the trout or grayling start rising.

Typical Application

The Vision Hero Nymph Line is developed for Euro Nymphing but can also be flexibly used for other techniques. Here lies the biggest advantage over a special Euro Nymphing leader made of monofilament.

We tested the innovative line from Vision in two different ways:

With a Euro Nymph Mono Leader: In combination with a continuous Euro Nymph Leader with double rod length, you have enormous reach and even more sensitivity. A sighter between the Euro Nymphing leader and your tippet helps with drift control and bite detection.
Directly mounted: You can also tie your tippet directly to the Vision Hero Nymph Line. This is facilitated by a micro loop at the tip, which glides smoothly through the guides. This is the quickest and easiest setup. If desired, you can tie a sighter between the line and your tippet. However, due to the color of the Vision Hero Nymph Line, this is not necessary. The bright green of the line is easy to see in different light conditions.

Conclusion

We tested the Vision Hero Nymph Line with different nymph patterns. From small, light patterns to heavy tungsten beads, everything can be cast and offered in a controlled manner with this line. The feedback is very direct due to its small line diameter, and slack is reduced to a minimum. The high degree of flexibility is the biggest advantage of this line, which is also an attractive choice for nymph fishers due to its very fair price.

If you don't want to deal with a long, ultra-thin Euro Nymph leader and instead want to remain flexible, then the Vision Hero Nymph Line is exactly right for you! The setup is very simple, and you can quickly tie on a dry fly to cast to a rising fish. It offers a balanced ratio of feel, precision, and bite detection and a price that seamlessly fits into the Hero product family from Vision.
