Field Notes

Fly line backing is used on a fly reel under the fly line to add capacity and help when a fish makes a long run. Dacron backing is a standard choice for freshwater and saltwater fly setups where extra line capacity and reliable knot strength matter.

Pros

  • Adds extra reel capacity
  • Reliable Dacron construction
  • Useful for fly setups in fresh or salt water

Cons

  • Not a standalone fishing line
  • No lure or presentation action
