TAIL MASTERY EURO TACTICAL NYMPH

For years, the SA Mastery Series lines have been among our most popular and best performing lines. While some things have changed, one thing hasn't: the Mastery Series lines continue to deliver just as well, if not better, than they ever have before. With our AST shine additive, Dry-Tip technology, color change at the back of the head and the SA•ID identification system, the Mastery lines are still the best soft lines at their price on the market. From dry fly purists to tarpon hounds, SA's Mastery Series provides every angler with the lines he needs to catch the fish he craves.

- For a European style nymph

- Formulated with advanced recovery technology

- The double-taper version retains the .022" tip, but tapers to a slightly larger belly so it can be thrown overhead when needed

- Tier .022” diameter, coated line for taut, sag-free presentations

TECHNOLOGY:

ADVANCED SHOOTING TECHNOLOGY: Scientific Anglers' patented dry-slick technology provides seamless line glide, allowing the line to shoot farther as it moves through the guides. Lines with AST easily shed dirt, algae and other parasitic particles, allowing the lines to cast farther, float higher and stay cleaner than traditional lines.

RECOMMENDED CARE:

Do you think your floating line isn't floating as well as it used to or isn't as smooth as it used to be? The reasons and ways to solve this problem are probably quite simple. Fishing lines float because they are lighter than water and because they are hydrophobic; they repel water. In order for the lines to float at their best, both of these features must work. The density of the line will not change, it will not absorb water, it will not soak up and sink, but if it gets dirty it will not repel water well and will float lower in surface tension and may be dragged under water now then. The key to good flotation is to keep the lines clean so the hydrophobic surface works. Cleaning with soap and water on a cloth removes most dirt, but cleaning swabs work even better. Cleaned properly, your lines will float better, cast better and last longer, definitely a good compromise for a couple of minutes of line maintenance. To use the cleaning swab, pinch the swab over the line so that the abrasive, non-foam side touches the line. Pull the line through the pad while maintaining some tension. Repeat this process until some of the fly line color is visible on the pad. Clean your lines every 2-3 rides, or whenever you think dirt is hindering their performance. Cleaning swabs are easy to carry in your vest or gear bag and can be used at any time, wet or dry. Please note that line dressing can be used to reduce drag during competitions or in practical casting scenarios, but we do not recommend it for fishing.
