Flow Tek uses our patented process for manufacturing advanced
polymer fly lines. In order to gain clarity all clear lines utilize
a monofilament nylon core material. Anglers realize monofilament
nylon has a tendency to acquire memory (think of your leaders).
While our slick, clear coating minimizes memory, the monofilament
nylon upon long storage times and with small arbor reels will
produce some memory. Anglers will want to slightly stretch MONIC
clear lines to alleviate reel memory. For optimum results on stretching;
try to stretch at one time the maximum amount of line you intend
to cast.
Loop fly line and tie a nail
knot with butt leader, slide knot to end of loop and cinch.
Loop-to-Loop
Use on: All MONIC fly lines
Tie two or three nail knots
with 15 lbs monofilament nylon.
GSP Fused Nail Knot
Use on: All MONIC "GSP"
fly lines
Tie a conventional nail knot.
Trim fly line to approx. 1/4 inch. Use flame to slowly melt fly line
back to knot. Quickly spin between fingers for a smooth finish.
Care for
your MONIC fly lines is critical for peak performance. Once fly
lines pick up dirt they do not float and cast to their full potential.
Clean lines with a mild detergent and redress with your favorite
dressing. Line dressing and cleaners do not affect our polymer coatings.
It is to your advantage to consistently clean your fly lines.
