Taper
Monic’s aggressive Javelin Taper is perfect for any angler seeking a more aggressive and easy casting line. The front-loaded design of the Javelin allows the angler to shoot line with ease when long casts are necessary or when windy conditions are a hindrance. Its more aggressive nature makes the line great for turning over cumbersome flies such as streamers, poppers, or heavy nymph and indicator rigs. Additionally, the increased mass in the initial belly portion of the head will more effectively load your rod with less line out – making for more efficient casts at close range.
Core
The Icicle utilizes a supple and relaxed braided fiber core. The low-to-moderate stretch rating gives the angler some shock absorbing properties and the ability to stretch the line by hand for relaxation, while still allowing for lower effort hook-sets. The core alone, by nature, holds zero reel memory helping to create a fly line that remains relaxed even while fishing in below-freezing temperatures.
Coating
The Icicle coating was designed to perform at a high level in all four seasons. The advanced coating blend will remain supple in colder temperatures while avoiding tack or stickiness during the warmer summer months or in tropical environments. The plastics involved are 100% naturally buoyant, creating a high-floating fly line that will NOT begin to sink over time.
Unlike many other fly lines that tend to lose their slickness due to surface treatments or chemicals leeching out of the plastic, Monic’s Icicle coating utilizes our proprietary STS slickness technology that has been expertly formulated and uniformly mixed within the plastic blend. This results in an extremely low friction surface that will shoot through rod guides like a dream but will NOT dissipate or migrate out of the plastic during the life of the line. This means, with occasional cleaning, your line will cast the same seasons later as it did right out of the package, even if fished in hard saltwater environments.
As with all Monic Fly Lines, the Icicle boasts superb durability. The non-PVC coating will NOT leech chemicals, absorb water, or begin to break down merely from regular use. You should expect 2-3 times the lifespan compared to a traditional PVC based fly line.
Line Weights Â
All Icicle Javelin Taper lines are a half size above the AFFTA standards. You can see the weight ranges in the chart pictured below (weights are measured from the first 30 ft of the head). All of our lines manufactured here at Monic are constructed at or just above the AFFTA standards. Many fly lines in today’s market are vastly over-weighted, sometimes up to 3 sizes. At Monic, we understand that not every angler is using a fast-action rod or wants an ultra-heavy fly line forced into their hands. That is why we want to leave the decision up to you. After all, nobody knows your rod and fishing style better than you do.

Umpqua Perform X Sighter Tippet Three Tone 15yds
€18.99Select options This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product pageUmpqua Perform X Sighter Tippet Three Tone 15yds
SKU: NFD9491Umpqua’s new indicator tippet was designed specifically for modern European-Nymphing techniques in order to give anglers a variety of choices to suit their preferences and the demands of the water without overcomplicating the process.
This new material is available in two- and three-toned configurations. The two-toned sighter contains alternating 8-inch fluorescent color bands, while the three-toned version separates those same fluorescent bands with a short 2-inch black section to help find your sighter quickly against strong glare and lighter backgrounds.
The shorter color bands give anglers more transition points to fine-tune their sighter lengths and knot placement, and the transitions are made as sharp as possible to avoid color overlap that makes it more difficult for the eye to pick up in changing environments.
Available in Heavy-Duty, Medium, and Micro sizes that each cover a variety of conditions and also pair perfectly with Umpqua’s new Hi-Viz Euro-Nymphing Leader Butt material.
Use this brand-new sighter tippet material to help take your European-Nymphing game to the next level.”
