The industry leader in Billfish fly fishing lines!

The Scientific Anglers Mastery Series Billfish Taper is respected in many countries as the best line available for billfishing. We find these lines to load incredibly quick and quickly energize your loops. The taper has many characteristics that were specifically designed from thousands of billfish being caught and landed using this line.

These lines have a break strength of over 60lbs and feature a much shorter than normal length to help prevent needless break-offs on crazy first runs. 

This line works! Try a Mastery Billfish Taper on your next bluewater expidition.
