Vision XO 85 Short Floating Sink 5 Sinktip Fly Line 8,5m Belly | # 5

Product information "Vision XO 85 Short Floating Sink 5 Sinktip Fly Line 8,5m Belly"

The XO 85 fly line from Vision is the revised version of the Vision bestseller Vibe 85+. The line has been equipped with many useful features and brought up to date with modern fly lines. However, the tried and tested taper has been retained as far as possible.

The XO 85 lines now come with the super durable and innovative Bolzi™ coating, which is not only completely phthalate and PVC-free, but also has excellent shooting properties. In fact, the line has incredibly low friction thanks to the smooth Bolzi™ coating, which means that the line shoots phenomenally through the rings when casting, both in cold and warm water (0 - 25° C). In addition, the handling section has been reduced to 2 meters. XO 85 lines are built on a low stretch core and have a prefabricated front loop and markings to identify the line type.

With a club length of 8.5 meters, the XO 85 is the ideal companion on smaller waters and whenever overhanging vegetation restricts the backspace when casting. The short belly has an aggressive front taper that loads modern fly rods quickly and offers plenty of turnover to cast weighted nymphs, large dry flies and streamers effortlessly and with placement. In addition to overhead casts, the XO 85 is ideal for various water casts such as switch and spey casts.

Sink5: The Sink 5 version is particularly suitable for fishing in deep water. The combination with a full floating running line offers particularly good control when fishing your streamer in the swing or upstream. Thanks to the 8.5 m club, even large articulated streamers, for example, can be cast easily and quickly brought to depth.
