Cortland Fly Line Backing, Micron, 20 lb Test, White

Cortland Micron, the standard by which all fly line backing has been judged for over 50 years, is renowned for its exceptional features. Manufactured from premium Dacron fibers at our New York facility, this fly line backing is world-famous for its tight, round braid, smooth low-friction finish, and stretch-resistant performance.

Unlike looser, flat braids, Cortland Micron comes with zero twist, is virtually tangle-free, and knots perfectly every time. This makes it the preferred choice among fly anglers who see their backing more than most, as they can attest to the reliable performance of Micron.

Available in 20-lb and 30-lb test, Cortland Micron is offered in a variety of colors, including traditional white, high-visibility yellow or orange, and the new blue option introduced in 2014. This versatility allows anglers to choose the option that best suits their specific needs and preferences.

One of the key advantages of Cortland Micron is its availability in various lengths, wound from bulk spools. This enables anglers to purchase only the amount they need, whether it's enough to fill a single reel or a larger quantity for bulk use. This flexibility ensures that anglers can optimize their investment and avoid waste.

In summary, Cortland Micron has remained the industry standard for fly line backing for over half a century, thanks to its exceptional performance characteristics and the convenience it offers to anglers. With its tight, round braid, smooth low-friction finish, and tangle-free, knot-resistant properties, Micron continues to be the go-to choice for fly fishermen who demand the best from their equipment.
