The products from Loomis & Franklin in Italy are developed in close collaboration with Soldarini Fly Tackle or Sandro Soldarini. A convincing price-performance ratio meets solid components and craftsmanship here. In addition to well-thought-out fly rods, Loomis & Franklin also offers fly lines and reels for an affordable entry into the world of fly fishing or reliable backup equipment for advanced anglers.
Double Taper (DT) lines are still very popular today. Especially in dry fly and light nymph fishing, DT lines allow for extremely precise and delicate presentations.
The XP SENSE DT by Loomis & Franklin is a traditionally tapered, floating double taper line, which, however, exhibits all the characteristics and refinements of modern fly lines. Its special line coating provides excellent buoyancy and allows the line to be gently lifted from the water to reposition the cast. The extremely smooth surface reduces friction in the rod guides, making the line also excellent for presenting over longer distances.
The XP Sense is 100 feet (30.5 m) long and has welded loops at both ends for quick and easy assembly. The line classes are printed directly on the line for quick identification. The line is color-coded in the middle, with a light blue and peach-colored side. Like all DT lines, the XP Sense DT can also be used on both sides. If the line shows signs of wear after intensive use, it can simply be reversed for a longer service life.
For those looking for a classic fly line for dry fly and light nymph fishing, the XP Sense DT is a clear recommendation. Once again, Loomis & Franklin demonstrates its excellent price-performance ratio with this line.
