Vision Grand Daddy Fly Line
Grand Daddy fly lines are the offspring of Visions famous Big Daddy fly lines. Like its predecessor the Grand Daddy has an 8.5 metres head. Vision has shortened the front taper and lengthened the rear taper compared to the old Big Daddy line. This means this line has even more powerful turnover for big and air resistant flies. It is perfectly balanced with the Grand Daddy rods. The coating is very slick and supple which remains memory free even in cold conditions. The low stretch core helps you to feel the takes and set the hook. It also transfers casting energy better than traditional cores. The ready-made loops at both ends make it easy to attach the backing and leader.
Sinking Grand Daddy lines utilise the Sliding Density™ concept where the density increases gradually to the tip of the line. Except the intermediate line which is a classic full intermediate.
