AMERICAN CASTING ASSOCIATION

ACA Accuracy Fly Lines- Renewed Tapers Fly lines produced for the ACA accuracy events by Rio have received updated tapers and diameters/weights, are now available for purchase. Trout Fly DT6F and Dry Fly DT7F, received front tapers length increase adjustment by 18 inches to promote smoother turnover. This will assist hovering the fly, measuring distance, and a smoother lay down to the target. Belly diameters for Trout Fly DT6F pass rules diameter requirements, and the Dry Fly line (without diameter limits), adjusted for a very slight increase in diameter/weight. Bass Bug lines are now available in both WF8 and WF9 sizes. (Previously, only in WF9F). WF8F are for those preferring a lighter outfit, but want the taper and head length best suited for Bass Bug event. Bass Bug front tapers, (shorter than both Trout and Dry fly lines), starting diameter and overall head length has been adjusted for better control and laydown to 50 foot target. The transition to thin running line is just beyond 50 foot target, just right to help cast to long target 65 – 70 feet. A new size DT5F line is now available, intended for use mostly by youth fly casters. Youth casting students are better able to handle a lighter outfit. The DT5F line with shorter length rod and smaller rod grips, allows more comfort, control and less fatigue while learning fly casting. All accuracy lines are bright orange color with low stretch core, that provides for great visibility, super-smooth flowing loops and consistent lay downs. (Some lines with higher stretch core cause missed targets, going beyond anticipated distance, due to stretch especially on hard/forceful lay downs). Order your next line soon for better scores and casting control.
