The Precision Platinum is Cortland's latest addition to their ground-breaking Precision Dyna-Tip floating trout line series. Developed specifically for versatile performance in a wide range of difficult-to-extreme trout fishing situations: from large rivers and tailwaters - to spring creeks and small streams. The new Precision Platinum line features a modified Rocket2 taper with a longer head, extended rear taper and oversized running line to deliver the following performance characteristics. Loads quickly for short, accurate casts - even with fast-action fly rods or in windy conditions - but still reaches out when you need maximum distance. Longer head allows you to carry more line in the air. Extended rear taper facilitates longer roll casts - and improved mending characteristics and line handling on big water. Overall taper configuration results in exceptionally stable loops and line control. The new Platinum also features Cortland's high-floating Dyna-Tip - a 3-foot hi-visibility white tip section especially formulated from a proprietary material that floats higher and lands more softly than conventional fly lines. The unique Dyna-Tip uses 21st Century technology (not just more micro-balloons) to float all day in the toughest conditions for longer, drag-free drifts and improved line control whether fishing dries or weighted nymphs. Like all Precision Dyna-Tip lines, the new Platinum is formulated with Cortland's proprietary DuraSlik coating, which is super-slick, durable and ultra-quiet in the guides - and significantly reduces surface friction for faster shooting, higher line speeds, and longer casts. A unique low-memory formulation remains supple in cold water yet won't wilt in summer heat - and resists coiling after long storage on your reel. |
