Ridge Ego Taper

Ridge Ego Taper new zealand airflo nz trout fishing line distance casting TRC tongariro roll cast

This line has the biggest head so we called it the EGO. The total head length is 64 feet long which is made up of a short front taper to bowl over heavy nymphs and indicators and ensure good turnover even at distance, next is a long belly which improves mending on big rivers and aids distance casting and the Tongariro roll cast. Lastly this is backed up with a long rear taper that helps control the long casts and helps transfer energy on long mends. This line is a perfect Tongariro or big river fly line, it also performs well for distance casting on lakes. The colour is Pale Peach which is visible on large rivers for good line control whilst still being subtle enough not to scare the locals.
