Weight Forward – Floating Line
The Saltwater Master is the perfect all-around floating line every saltwater angler should have in their arsenal. We designed this line from start to finish to withstand the harsh saltwater environment and to have the versatility to target nearly any species you’d find in the salt. Whether you are sight casting to stripers off the cape, stalking the elusive permit, or bowing to the silver king, the Saltwater Master is the perfect tool for you. With just a hint of sky blue color, this line is very stealthy and unobtrusive on the water. Giving the angler the advantages of the clear but with slightly more visibility for tracking your line on the water.
Taper
The Saltwater Master has a head design that is specialized to target nearly any saltwater species. The short powerful front taper allows the angler to effectively turn over large/heavy flies or extra long leaders with ease. The extended rear taper and longer head provide superb control and stability while carrying line which makes for long and accurate shots, even in windy conditions.
Core
The Saltwater Master uses our semi-stiff low-stretch saltwater core. The minimal stretch allows for excellent sensitivity and powerful hook-sets while still allowing to anneal/straighten the line easily with a simple hand stretch. This added stiffness will also help retain the character of the line in extreme heat.
Coating
The Saltwater Master uses our advanced STS coating system. With its game changing slickness formula uniformly built into the coating, the slick properties will never wear off, maintaining that superb line shooting ability. STS also reduces salt build-up, extending maximum performance in between cleanings. With just a hint of light sky blue color added to our clear coat, this line is very stealthy and unobtrusive on the water. Giving the angler all the advantages of a stealthy natural color line but with slightly more visibility for tracking your line on the water.
Line Weights
All Saltwater Masters are weighted a half size above the AFFTA standards. You can see the weight ranges in the chart pictured here (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.

Galvan Torque Reels
€559.00 – €829.00Select optionsGalvan Torque Reels
SKU: NFD9315The Torque is the most popular series of reels from Galvan (California, USA) which is, like all Galvan reels manufactured in America!
As the premier reel in the Galvan range, the Torque Series reels represent the culmination of a lifetime of fly-fishing and passion for reel design. Simply stated, it represents the very best of modern fly reel architecture. The Torque reel series was created because Boni wanted to create a revolutionary reel with a more substantial drag system than was presently available on the market. And it had to be sexy. Thus the Torque series reels were born.
The unique Torque reel, the fourth series created by Boni, was the first reel released with our Torque drag system, which is now employed in all of our reels. Its inception was in late 2002 with prototypes coming to life in 2003. After being tested, retested and modified, it was finally released to the public in 2004. It immediately won the 2004 Editor’s Choice in Fly Fish America and was ranked #3 in the recent Yellowstone Angler’s 8-wt reel shootout, beating a host of other reels in function and price (link). Its original style and unique porting has solidified Galvan’s reputation as a leading innovator in the industry.
The visually striking appearance of the Torque reels is a result of the unique cut-outs on the frame, spool, drag knob and reel foot. This design is not only aesthetic but also structural as it significantly reduces the weight of the reel while maintaining strength and increasing rigidity .The rounded rims on both spool and frame enhance durability to better withstand impact during extreme angling conditions.
At first glance, the hand is drawn to the reel and from the first crank of the contoured counter balanced spool, the reel’s quality is apparent. It is a combination of efficiency and simplicity driven by function. In this case, less is more and cost is no exception as Torque reels retail at half the price of reels in its class.
Torque Series reels are saltwater safe and will perform flawlessly under the harshest conditions. From remote alpine lakes to the saltwater flats, the highly ventilated spool and frame balance nicely with the lightest of today’s fly rods yet still compliment a modern big-game saltwater fly rod. The Torque is tough as nails and skillfully marries the technology of the future with the tradition of the past.
