Understanding Fly Line Design with Zach McKnight

from Wet Fly Swing Fly Fishing Podcast · host Dave Stewart, Zach Mcknight

Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/882b Sponsors: Fly Fish with me Utah, TroutRoutes, and On DeMark Lodge. Fly fishing has a way of making simple problems feel complicated. Your cast feels off, the presentation isn't doing what you want, and suddenly you're blaming everything in your hand. In this episode, we dig into understanding fly line design with Zach McKnight from Cortland Line, and it's one of those conversations that can instantly clear the fog. Not by piling on more jargon, but by getting back to the one connection that quietly drives everything: rod to line to fly. We also get into a little company history, why Cortland is working hard to be "the Cortland your grandpa remembers," and where fluorocarbon actually makes a difference when the water is clear and the fish are spooky.
