Loomis & Franklin XP Sense Extra Distance

Loomis & Franklin XP Sense Extra Distance. A fly line designed specifically for long casts, such as those required from shore or in “stillwater” fly fishing, which is becoming increasingly popular throughout Europe.

The excellent casting properties of the Loomis & Franklin XP Sense Extra Distance fly line are due to the special head profile with its extended front taper, which allows exceptional casting distances to be achieved, especially with “overhead” casting. But even “froller” casts allow considerable distances to be reached with this tail. The extremely smooth surface reduces friction between the fly line and the rod rings and, together with the thin diameter of the “running line”, considerably increases the casting distance, as the head pulls the rest of the tail through the rings with ease when being cast.

Available in #7 and #8 tail classes, the 100ft (30.5m) EXTRA DISTANCE XP SENSE is offered in a floating (yellow head, orange running line) and intermediate (olive head and orange running line) version.

Loomis & Franklin EXTRA DISTANCE XP SENSE fly lines are economical, but have a compact construction that minimises the elasticity of the tail. For quick terminal and backing insertion, it has built-in rings at both ends of the tail.
