The Clearwater series from Orvis includes products that offer particularly good value for money. This also includes the floating Clearwater WF line, which is an absolute recommendation for beginners as well as for price-conscious fly fishermen.
Clearwater fly lines are characterized by their universal taper, which is 100% convincing for both overhead and water contact casts. The taper measures approx. 9.14 m and helps to load modern carbon fiber rods quickly and effectively. The short front taper of the Clearwater ensures a clean turnover even with weighted flies or streamers. Beginners in particular will feel the load in the rod blank better because the floating line is about half a class above the AFTMA classification. In the lower line classes, the Clearwater is suitable for fishing for trout and co. on streams and rivers. In the higher line classes, it comes into its own when fishing for predatory fish, e.g. perch, zander or pike.
One of the features of the Clearwater WF line is the Orvis Line ID. This means that all relevant information for quick identification of the line can be found on the coating. In addition, each line has smooth and durable welded loops that make it easier to mount leaders. In addition, the energy is transferred more efficiently to the leader. All Clearwater lines are built on a durable braided core.
If you are looking for a floating universal line with a great price-performance ratio, then you can go for the Orvis Clearwater without hesitation.
