The American manufacturer Cortland is renowned worldwide for its high-quality fishing lines – whether fly lines, monofilament, fluorocarbon, or braided lines. All their products share one thing in common: consistent premium quality without any weak points.
This, of course, also applies to the Micron Backing from Cortland – an absolute classic! The Cortland Micron Backing has been the standard against which all backings have been measured for over 50 years. Micron is world-famous for its tight, round braid, smooth and frictionless surface, and stretch-resistant performance. It is crafted from high-quality Dacron fibers. Unlike loose, flat braids, Micron doesn’t twist, is virtually tangle-free, and ties perfect knots every time. Most fly anglers who frequently see their backing will confirm that they use Micron – always and everywhere.
In short: You can rely 100% on Cortland’s Micron Backing – because in the magical connection between fish and angler, nothing should be left to chance! It is available in various diameters, lengths, and colors, so you can find the perfect backing for your fishing and your fly reel.
