Angling excitement since 1915 .....and everything that comes with it.

Time has been kind to the landscape outside our Cortland, NY factory. Little has changed since we started making fly lines here in 1915. The rolling hills and crystal-clear trout streams are still pretty much as they were when Cortland Line Company founder Ray Smith defined his mission to produce the World’s finest fly lines. At the time, natural silk was the material of choice for quality lines. Ray developed new processes to make his lines last longer and perform better. We still use this approach, but we long ago replaced the silk with PVC, Nylon, silicone and a host of other modern materials to make today’s Cortland fly lines. Another thing that hasn’t changed is the passion we put into our products. Ray Smith was a fisherman who wanted a better line and went about finding a way to make one. At Cortland Line, we’re fishermen too. It’s not unusual to see a Cortland employee walk down to the river during his lunch hour for “just a couple casts.” Spend a few minutes in the office and you’ll over hear pieces of conversation like, …..”how was Montana last week?”…….”talked to Frank and he said the tarpon”…………”sounds like it’s been a good year on the”……… “fished the West Branch yesterday’…”Hendricksons”…. “hot new pattern”………”stripers”… ….”water was up, but that QD did the trick”……. You see, we live to fish. And because we fish we know that the difference between success and failure on the water can depend on your fly line. Like you, we want to fish with the best fly lines in the available. So we build every Cortland Fly Line as if we were going to use it ourselves. Using the finest materials and cutting edge technologies we produce lines that out perform any other fly lines on the market. In this catalog, you will find the finest fly lines in the world, lines engineered to meet any fly fishing challenge. Whether the quarry is trout or tarpon, bass or bones, steelhead or stripers, we fish for them our selves and we put that experience into every Cortland fly line we build. We think Ray would be proud.

care

1. Keep it clean! A clean line is a happy line. And a better performing line. During fishing, any fly line will pick up dirt, algae, minerals, and in salt water, salt. These materials will stick to the finish and can reduce floatability and shootability. They can also act like sandpaper and actually cut into the guides on your rod. Clean lines shoot farther, float better and last longer. The best way to clean a line is by using one of the many Non Solvent Based line cleaners widely available today. Cortland Pro Line Cleaner, a water based cleaner, is our own choice. If you are unsure whether a cleaner is water or solvent based, ask at your local fly shop. Solvent-based cleaners can dissolve the PVC finish of your line, resulting in a much shorter life. Stay away from products like Armor All. While these are great for your car, they can actually melt your line’s finish! The same goes for oil based products like WD40. These products have been recommended recently for “making a line shoot better”, but will destroy a fly line’s finish in no time. A good line cleaner is simple soap and water. Any good non-detergent liquid soap works fine. Just put a few drops on a clean, wet cloth or paper towel and pull the line through it several times. Repeat with a wet cloth (no soap) to rinse. You’ll be surprised how much dirt will come off even a clean looking line. It’s a good policy to clean your line after each fishing day. 2. Give it a tug! If you have ever watched tournament casters, you have most likely seen them stretching their lines before competition. Any fly line will have some degree of memory from being left on the reel between fishing trips, and taking a few seconds to stretch out the coils will pay off in ease of handling and better shooting. Pull off the length of line that you normally cast, plus a few more feet, and simply stretch it between your hands a few feet at a time. Give it a good tug, hold for a second, and the coils will be gone! Wind it back on the reel and start fishing! Stretching your line is especially important in cold weather or when fishing saltwater, (or anywhere else) where longer casts are the norm. 3. Don’t step on it! Stepping on a fly line can damage the finish or even cut the line. This is especially true if you wear studded or cleated wading shoes. In a boat, be careful not to stand on your line when it’s coiled on the deck. 4. Keep it away from Solvents! Insect repellents, gasoline, stove fuel, etc, can all dissolve the PVC finish of your line. Keep them away from your line, but if you do spill something on it, rinse it immediately with water and wipe it with a soft cloth or paper towel. 5. Check your rod guides! Over time, line guides can wear out and become grooved from use. This is especially true on older rods, which used steel snake guides. A grooved or worn guide can literally cut the finish off a fly line in no time. Take a minute and check for guide wear, and have any worn guides replaced by the rod maker. 6. Don’t use grease type “Floatants” on modern PVC fly lines! In the past, when fly lines were made of oiled natural silk, fishermen had to use grease to waterproof and float their lines. Without this protection, the silk would absorb water and sink, and if left untreated would eventually rot and break. Today, fly lines are made of inorganic nylon and plastic materials and don’t need to be greased to “preserve’ them. Also, the floating elements are built into the line itself and anglers don’t need to add anything to enhance the floatability of the line. In fact, using grease type floatants can actually decrease the performance of your line and possibly harm the line’s finish. Grease will build up on the line and make it drag in the guides. It will also attract dirt and eventually cause the line to sink! So just keep it clean as suggested in rule 1 above and you will get the maximum performance from your floating fly line!

Technology Our revolutionary Dyna Tip Technology is an example of this search for a better performing fly line. When some of us asked for a line with a higher floating tip, our R&D department came up with an entirely new way to solve the problem. They didn’t just add more “micro balloons” to the tip, they developed a whole new technology. The result is the best floating fly line on the market. Period. Thank You As an employee owned company, the Cortland Line Company family would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our customers for your loyalty and support over the past 94 years. You are the reason we continue to grow as a company and lead the industry year after year. We sincerely wish you every success and hope you will continue to fish with “Cortland Confidence.” Your Ideas Cortland Line Company is, and will continue to be, an industry leader in technology, innovation and quality. Our employees, product testers and pro staff are all committed to developing and producing the best fishing tackle in the world. However, not all-great ideas come from the people in the industry. Some of our customers spend nearly every day of the season on the water; others make it to the river, lake or ocean just a few times a year. But whether you are a weekend warrior or a full time guide, your input is important to us.


I started using the PE+ Crystal line when it was first introduced. Since then the line has become a “don’t leave the dock without it” line. I use it when I want to cover a lot of water where I think fish maybe holding or when the fish seem especially spooky. Clearly a deadly weapon. No pun intended. Steve Huff Renowned Fishing Guide Islamorada, Florida

Cortland Line’s ninety five year history is filled with ground breaking advances in fly line development and technology. Never being satisfied and always looking to develop the next generation of fly lines, Cortland has again taken the next step in redefining fly line technology. Cortland’s new patent pending PE+ Crystal Lines are a radically new series of clear floating lines formulated from an advanced composition of “super strong” polyethylene and special co-polymers. Polyethylene is the same technology that has revolutionized the “super braid” market over the past few years and is now available in fly line development. The PE+ jacket is naturally lighter than water, eliminating the need for micro-spheres or other agents to make it float. Resulting in an ultra-smooth finish that shoots further and has a lower specific gravity that other pvc fly lines.

Another new item that has been a smash this year for many tarpon anglers is the Cortland PE+ Crystal clear floating fly line... casts great, fights fish tough! ... With a good angler, it’s not fair to fish. Sandy Moret Owner - Florida Keys Outfitters Islamorada, Florida

The tough PE+ jacket is also much more abrasion resistant and it’s high tensile strength resists stress and eliminates stretch, which is a major cause of fly line cracking. The PE+ jacket is also UV resistant, and will not discolor over time. The high strength PE+ jacket is fused to the fly line core making an unbreakable bond where nail knots are used.

* Ultra-smooth finish - extreme distance * super hard jacket - abrasion resistance * 2x the strength of pvc lines * no line stretch * UV stable * crystal clear

the Dyna tip: technology Keeps it on top. A couple of years ago some of the dedicated dry fly anglers at Cortland went to the R & D department and asked, “why the hell can’t you build us a fly line with a real floating tip? A tip that stays on top all day, every day.” Well the guys in the lab coats scratched their heads and then did just that. The prototypes were fantastic, the testers loved them. “How did you do it?” they asked. “Can’t tell you, its proprietary information,” the lab coat guys said. “ The tip is so fine but still floats higher than anything we’ve ever seen. What’s the secret?” “Can’t say.” “More Micro Balloons in the tip?” “Nope, that’s been done to death. We’re using something different, something no one else has.”“ok,” said the fishermen, “we’ll shut up. Just make us more lines”. The test lines worked so well we began to put the new tips on our premium Precision floating lines. We called them “Dyna-Tips”. Finally, anglers have a fly line with a tip that really keeps floating, and has the fine diameters needed for delicate presentations to spooky fish. A high floating tip means less line drag, less drag means better floats, and better floats fool more trout.

Precision Dyna-Tip - Western Drifter (Welded Loop) (90') The "Western Drifter" was engineered to meet the challenges of "big water", East or West. The modified Rocket2 taper loads with a minimum of line for easy pick-ups and quick shots to those fast water pockets, but will also reach out with ease for longer casts. An oversized running line section allows easy mending and better line handling, and our special core and jacket formulation means almost no "memory" for reduced coiling. The easy to see Mango color helps you track your drift and the specially formulated 3' "DynaTip" keeps the line tip floating for less drag, easier strike detection and better hook sets. Whether you're drifting a pair of bead heads under an indicator, fishing dries in the pockets or swinging a streamer, the "Western Drifter" is the new go-to line for "big water" anglers everywhere.

ProFessionAl enDorseMent Stillwater fishing requires specific lines to fish different zones in the water. I rely on Cortland Precision Sub-Surface lines for my fishing. The Clear Camo Intermediate is the slowest sinking line available. Perfect for fishing stillwater in shallow shoreline areas or on the top 6 feet. The 5 foot type 2 Precision ghosttip was designed for fishing emerging insects in depths of 2-5 feet in lakes or nymphing in streams and rivers. And the 15 foot type 2 Precision ghosttip is a great stillwater line for fishing depths of 10-15 feet.

ProFessionAl enDorseMent “As a full time striped bass guide I need a fast sinking, shooting head line which casts well, handles large flies and holds up over time. Cortland’s Precision Quick Descent lines meet all those criteria and more with the rugged, no hinge transition from the sink-tip to the running line and the smooth casting function. When rocks, mussel bars and clam shells rip at my lines they must hold up under diving runs of strong fish. Years of using Quick Descent lines have proven to me that these lines are the only ones to use while chasing striped bass.” Captain Doug Jowett Northeastern coastal guide Cortland Pro Staff

444 Classic - Sinking Lines (90') With most species taking far more of their natural food below the surface than on the top. Sinking lines get the fly down to these deeper feeding locations. Because feeding patterns, water depth and current vary, Cortland manufactures a wide range of sinking lines. Available in different densities (sink rates) to insure that there is a line right for any condition. 444 Sinking Lines come in varying shades of brown, with the lighter lines indicating a slower sink rate than the darker.

Precision - Tapered Running Line (Welded Loops) (100') One of the biggest problems with shooting head/running line set-ups has been the "hinge" that develops when you connect the two different lines. Not any more! Cortland is the first to develop a TAPERED running line to eliminate hinging and add ease and distance to your cast. The 8' body mates exactly to the rear taper diameter of the shooting head for smooth energy transfer, then tapers to the 89' running line section. Now you can have the head/running connection OUTSIDE the guides when casting, resulting in more distance with less effort. And the sonic welded loops connect smoothly and cleanly for no guide hang-ups.

Mastering a controlled , effortless cast determines your success in fly fishing. The time tested formulation of the 444 Classic Fly Line series offers today’s fly fishers the same supple, glass smooth finish that made this line, the “Fly Line of the Millenium”. The suppleness of the 444 Classic combined with special tapers allow you to keep tight loops and pinpoint casting accuracy.

444 Classic - Clear Creek (90') Whether you're on the legendary creeks of Paradise Valley, the Chalk Streams of Hampshire, or in the Limestone country of Pennsylvania, spring creeks (and tail waters!) present special challenges. The extra long, supple tip of the Clear Creek helps put the body of the line further from the target, resulting in a softer, more precise delivery of the fly. The muted olive color blends into both bank-side and aquatic vegetation. And our cold water formulation remains coil free in any condition. 444 Clear Creek, the choice of spring creek experts!

With most species taking far more of their natural food below the surface than on the top. Sinking lines get the fly down to these deeper feeding locations. Because feeding patterns, water depth and current vary, Cortland manufactures a wide range of sinking lines. Available in different densities (sink rates) to insure that there is a line right for any condition. 444 Sinking Lines come in varying shades of brown, with the lighter lines indicating a slower sink rate than the darker.

With a specific gravity of 1.06, this neutral density 444 intermediate fly line is only slightly heavier than water. Left untreated it will sink very slowly making it especially useful for fishing over shallow, submerged weed beds. A favorite for fly fishing enthusiasts because the line settles just below a surface chop and remains straight for positive hook-setting.

The 444 Clear Camo is the top choice for stillwater anglers all over the world. The super stealthy "clear camo" blends into any sub-surface environment to virtually disappear in the water and will not disturb the water surface. The slowest full sinking line on the market with a sink rate of 1.25 - 1.75 ips. This allows the fly to stay in the feeding zone longer than any other line. The 444 Clear Camo is ideal for the shallow water conditions and spooky fish. This super supple line will remain supple in the coldest of conditions.

The Cortland 333 name has been an integral part of fly fishing around the world for more than 50 years. First introduced in 1953 as the 333x, with the x being for experimental, this line was the very first synthetic fly line ever produced. Today, anglers still trust Cortland first for top quality, dependable, performance fly lines. The 333+ has been re-engineered for today’s modern faster action fly rods and features a longer belly to load rods more quickly and carry more line in the air. Durability and satin smooth finish are second to none.

lo n G b e l ly F ly l i n e s 333+ Long Belly Sink-Tip - Type 3 (84') The 333+ Long Belly Sink Tip taper increases casting ease versus a fullsinking line yet allows you to efficienty fish below the surface. The first 10 feet of line is a sinking Type 3 (3.5-4 IPS) material that is ideal for wet fly and nymph fishing.

TooTHY CRITTER® TIE-ABLE STAINLESS STEEL LEADER MATERIAL

Chasing after pike, muskies, bluefish and barracuda requires specialized tackle. Even the toughest gear is useless against those razor sharp teeth unless you are fishing with a leader material that can stand up to the task. Cortland Line Company offers Toothy Critter®, the finest tie-able stainless steel leader material available for fishing. Aptly named, Toothy Critter® is tough as steel (because it is) a leader material that is supple enough for tying but tough enough for even the most razor sharp teeth. Conventional knots work fine.

big sky 904-4 9’ 4wt 4pc. 3 ¼ oz Delicate and light in the hand, but powerful enough to beat the wind. Fine in the tip to protect light tippets, but with enough length to control drift. The 904-4 Big Sky is the light line choice for fishing smaller flies on bigger rivers and tail waters East, West, wherever the trout are rising!

biG sKy Big Sky! It’s not just a state, but a state of mind. Sure, “Big Sky” is a July afternoon on the Madison. But it’s also a russet dawn on the Cape, clouds reflected in blue-green flats off Andros, an eagle wheeling high over the Big Delaware, a Maine brookie pond stippled with autumn color, a cart-wheeling tarpon silhouetted against a back country sunset. In short, the spirit of “Big Sky” is wherever your fishing adventures take you. And with that spirit in mind, we’ve created the Cortland Big Sky series of fly rods. Modern, fast action 4 piece rods that can deliver the goods with power and finesse. We designed each rod in the series to meet specific angling challenges and then tuned the actions to make these the best casting, best fishing rods we have ever offered. Finally, we added the highest quality hardware we could find, a hand shaped specie cork grip, and packaged it all in an integrated rod/reel carrier to protect it during your travels. And all at a price that sets a new standard for value. Whether you target trout, stripers, bones, tarpon, bass or salmon there’s a Big Sky rod for you!

big sky 905-4 9’ 5wt 4pc 3.5 oz Here’s the trout rod that does it all on medium to large rivers. The 9’ 5 wt is the number 1 selling fly rod in the US, so we had to get this one right! Easy casting at all distances, with enough power to handle wind and the whole range of trout fly sizes. Strong enough to put the boots to a running rainbow, but able to fish size 18’s on 6x. Whether it’s fishing PMD emergers on the Missouri, reaching out to a rising brown on the Beaverkill, or nymphing the green, the 905-4 Big Sky is the one trout rod you can take anywhere! big sky 906-4 9’ 6wt 4pc 3 9/16 oz Perhaps the most versatile freshwater rod in the Big Sky series, the 906-4 covers the whole spectrum of fly-fishing challenges. Casting dries, streamers, and nymphs to trout, chasing Smallies, tossing a popper to Blue gills, or fishing smaller flies for Steelhead, this rod is up to the task. East or West, if you are going to own just one fly rod say “hello” to the 906-4! big sky 906-4 saltwater 9’ 6wt 4pc 3 9/16 oz A salty action 6wt rod with a 1” fighting but that teams up perfectly with Cortland’s Tropic Plus lines and freshwater Rocket tapers for chasing Red-fish, small bones, Small-mouth Bass and giant trout. This rod provides the smoothness that 6wt rods are famous for along with the needed boost for longer casts and fishing heavier flies in light salt and heavy fresh water situations. big sky 907-4 9’ 7wt 4pc 4 1/16 oz Bigger than a 6, not quite an 8, but just right in so many situations! The 7 wt is perhaps the most overlooked line size in fly-fishing, but it’s also one of the best. Light enough to be easy casting, powerful enough to throw larger flies and put the smack down on bass, bones, steelies, salmon, big trout, reds, you name it! And the Big Sky 907-4 is one great casting 7 wt! Teamed up with a Cortland Type 3 full sinking line and a big streamer this rod will punch like a heavy weight into almost any wind. or with a floater, deliver a Charlie right on target to a cruising bone. If you don’t own a 7, you owe it to yourself to find out what you’re missing!

big sky 908-4 8wt 4pc 4 3/16 oz In a world where 8wt’s have become relabeled 9wt’s this rod stands true. Not an unforgiving “stick”, not a floppy “wimp”. This rod’s smooth power generates high line speed for greater distance when you want it, along with accuracy and delicate presentation when you need it. That’s what this true 8wt is all about. For all the reasons you would choose an 8 wt, the Big Sky 908-4 is the one to choose.

big sky 909-4 9wt 4pc 4 5/8 oz The need for longer casts in pants whipping winds in both salt and freshwater situations has elevated the 9wt to a must have rod for many avid fly fisherman. However when that that close range fish pop’s up out of now where (and you know they do) creating the need to load the rod and react quickly with a close accurate cast with out landing the fly like a cannon ball, many turbo 9wt’s don’t can’t get it done. We dialed back the tip action on this rod to accomplish this task with out sacrificing power and distance. It cast’s like a 9wt should in the wind and like a 8 ‘6” 4wt on a short cast when it needs to making it a complete 9wt fly rod. big sky 910-4 10wt 4pc 4 ½ oz Think of the 10 wt as the heavy cruiser of fly rods. Here’s the rod for Pike, Musky, Stripers, small to medium tarpon, or any other fish that will grab a big fly and not want to give it back. Many tarpon guides now recommend the 10 wt as the best all round fly rod for it’s combination of easy casting and fish fighting abilities. The Big Sky 910-4 is a truly powerful 10wt that the average caster can load and handle with ease. It can match distance with any rod out there, yet still fish in close for full range versatility.

big sky 911-4 11wt 4pc 5 5/16 oz Another overlooked line size, the 11 wt has always been an “in between” rod. The Big Sky 911-4 is going to change that thinking! Many guides feel that because of its ability to go long and short with spectacular control and great ease, handling both small and big fish…. The 11 is their new “got to have rod.” The Big Sky 911 is going to put a lot of flies into the mouths of big fish everywhere, and find a home in the hearts of many fly fisherman.

big sky 912-4 12wt 4pc 5 ½ oz over the last decade no weight fly rod has improved more than the 12. They’re a rod designer’s ultimate challenge. Take the heaviest rod and make it light in the hand while having the strength to handle a 200lb maniac. Design it to cast in the strongest fishable winds and still lay down a sweet 30 footer right All Big Sky rods come with a divided, cordura rod and reel carrier.

now. We put all those things into this rod and took it one step farther by making it an unparalleled value. The challenge is up to you to find a 4pc rod w/tube that matches this rod’s performance at this price. Just for you we’ve raised the bar and lowered the cost on an elite 12wt rod.

The CasseTTe sysTem ®

Fly fishing authories have considered the true Cassette System from STH as the greatest advancement in fly reels in decades. Convenient and economical, the Cassette System allows you to carry several different fly lines at a lower cost than conventional metal spools. You have little more than the weight of the line to carry. There are five Cassette sizes available to cover line weights from 2 through 12. Cassettes are made of indestructible polycarbonate. STH Cassettes will fit any Cassette reel on the market. Although the reels may be made of different materials and have different drag systems, they all accept the same Cassettes. Cassettes are also as easy to change between left and right hand retrieves as flipping the Cassette over; no more taking the line off of the spool and re-winding. Don’t become a spool collector; use the logical alternative, the Patented Cassette System from STH.

The TuRbine sysTem Drag Lb.

The revolutionary Turbine Drag System consists of a turbine impeller, immersed in a special multi-viscosity fluid. This “smoother than silk” drag system provides three benefits over traditional drag systems. 1. When a fish first takes or begins a run, there is no inertial friction to overcome. This lack of inertial forces at start-up makes this reel a tippet saver since you can use fine tippets and not worry about the fish breaking off.

2. Drag changes automatically with the speed of the fish according to the physics principle of “action and reaction”. No need to worry about drag settings. As the fish speeds up, the drag increases automatically (up to a maximum point that is sufficient to slow a fish; not stop a freight train). This maximum point varies depending on the specie usage for which the particular reel is designed. See specifications for individual reels.

3. Spool over-run or backlash is impossible with this reel. When the fish stops it’s run, the fluid in the turbine effectively acts as a break against the turbine and thus stops the spool.
