The Monic Skyline Plus is a true all-around talent, as it features a taper that is extremely easy to cast and a coating that remains smooth in both freshwater and saltwater. This makes it effortless to cast everything from small streamers in trout streams to large poppers on GT.
The taper of the Monic Skyline Plus fly line is the well-known Javelin Taper, which ensures that the fly line is extremely easy to cast in all situations. From close range with large indicator rigs to long-distance casts with large flies. This is possible because most of the weight of the line has been shifted to the front part, so the fly line loads the fly rod extremely quickly. For longer casts at maximum distances, the second belly, as well as the rear taper of the line, provide the necessary stability in the cast, even against the wind. The Monic Skyline Plus uses the smooth braided GSP (gel-spun polyethylene) fiber core for which Monic is so well known. The low to moderate stretch provides shock-absorbing properties when using particularly sensitive leaders and allows the line to be straightened with a light hand stretch, while requiring minimal force for effective hook setting. The core alone has no memory and helps create a fly line that remains supple regardless of whether it's hot or temperatures are below freezing in January. In addition, the Skyline lines have an appropriate core for each class, the higher the line class, the greater the strength of the braid.
- Class #6 = 35 lb
- Class #7-9 = 55 lb
- Class #10-12 = 65 lb
Unlike many other fly lines that lose slickness due to surface treatments or chemicals leaching from the plastic, the Monic Skyline Plus uses the Skyline coating, Monic's proprietary STS lubrication technology, expertly formulated and evenly mixed into the plastic compound. This results in an extremely low friction surface that glides like a dream through the guides, but does not decrease or migrate from the plastic over the life of the line. This means that your line will cast just as well with occasional cleaning as it did straight out of the box, even when fished in rough conditions. Like all Monic fly lines, the Skyline Plus offers excellent durability overall!

Monic's high-quality lines are made in the USA and offer fly fishers a PVC-free alternative to many other fly lines on the market. No harmful chemicals are used in Monic fly lines. All components that make up a Monic line are 100% recyclable. And because no PVC is used, the coatings contain no volatile and harmful chemicals that have to be added to PVC to make a typical fly line. The American brand, which was founded in the 1980s, recognises that there is an essential and vital link between a healthy habitat and better fishing. Therefore, one of Monic's founding principles is to develop and deliver the best performing fly lines that also help protect our waters for future generations of anglers.
