Cortland Hollow-X Spliceable Fly Line Backing
The best money can buy!
$139.95
For hard core anglers who are looking for the best strength to diameter ratio and who want to get the maximum amount possible on any fly reel.
Cortland Hollow-X Spliceable Fly LIne Backing, backing is specifically designed to splice in fly lines for a knotless backing connection…..but of course works just as well with standard connections. Ideal for big game species such as Tuna, Marlin, Tarpon, and Giant Trevally. The 12 carrier Hollow Core construction provides extreme abrasion resistance yet remains incredibly smooth to the touch.
Braided with a hollow core for fast and reliable splicing. Tight, round weave and uniform pick count (wraps per inch) for an exceptionally smooth surface that packs tightly on the spool with no flattening or digging in. FiberTech penetrates the weave and bonds with the individual Spectra fibers to stiffen and improve the handling characteristics of the line. Fine diameter minimizes line drag when trolling or fighting fish. 12-carrier construction results in incredible resistance to nicks and abrasions.
Cortland Hollow-X Core Backing sold here in Blue and White in the 50lb and 70lb strength/diameter. 600 yard spools here. (other lengths of each available here on our website).
50lb = .010″ diameter 12 Braid Carrier
70lb = .013″ diameter 12 Braid Carrier
In comparison, standard Dacron backing in 20lb is .018″ in diameter and 30lb is .024″ in diameter. This means that you can get almost TWICE as much on a reel as standard 20lb or 30lb dacron.
* We can also of course install this stuff on a reel for you in place of standard dacron backing. We do of course have to charge for it, as it is much more expensive, but we are happy to offer this service and keep bulk spools here in the shop for rigging. We also offer a variety of custom rigging options with this stuff. Please give us a call if any questions.
