The Contented Angler
"A Genuine Fly Shop"
444 Classic Fly Line  - Veteran anglers now refer to it as
the 444 peach line. It's great on cane rods, glass rods and,
of course, graphite. Still one of the most durable lines you
will find. This line is soaked in tradition.
Available in: WF3 - WF9.  DT2F - DT9F.
Price:  $50.00.
The 444 Classic Sylk fly line is the first ever fully synthetic fly line to
recreate the original appearance and unique performance of the finest
natural silk lines from the past 100 years - without all the maintenance and
high cost. With the traditionalist in mind, Cortlands technicians have
designed this line in a color that nearly matches the look of traditional silk
line coated with linseed oil and mucilin. Their suppleness makes them great
cold weather lines with virtually any fly rod. The taper of the new 444
Classic Sylk is based on traditional silk line designs with long front tapers
and longer level tips.
Available in WF2F - WF6F and DT2F - DT6F.
Suggested Retail $50.00
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 distort the water
surface. The slowest full sinking line on the market with a sink rate of 1.5 - 2
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 conditions.
Sizes: WF 3 - 10
Type: Intermediate Type 1 (1.5 - 2 IPS)
Taper: WF
Color: Clear Camo
Core: Mono

New Cortland Whisper Taper -  Cortland has done it again
with this new addition to the
Classic Series. The Cortland
Whisper taper glides through the guides, has great
shootability, and gives you a gentle presentation. We also love
the subtle cream color. We also find this to be a great line on
glass and Cane rods. Our choice for fishing to fussy trout.

Available in WF2 - 8 and DT2 - 7
Cortland Fly lines
The time tested durable classic line for Cane, glass and
graphite, but we also like the new whisper lines for these
applications. At one time, it was everyone's favorite, and
still is.
"Good line for selective fish and a good stillwater line"
Many people have purchased the Cortland Sylk line for their glass and
cane rods and were surprised to find that they now have the best line for
fishing midges
We use the Clear Camo when fishing
midge pupa and it makes a world of
difference! Use this for selective fish and
see your catch rate increase dramatically.
Pro Shop Status - Pro Shop status has nothing to do with your fly fishing experience or your
knowledge of a product. It is determined by how much you spend with a particular company.

I'm going to copy and paste this again because I want you to hear it when you wake up in the morning.
Pro
Shop status has nothing to do with your fly fishing experience or your knowledge of a product.
It is determined by how much you spend with a particular company
.You know that The Contented
Angler is not persuaded by gimmicks. It ties up money that could be used to buy a product that is just as
good or better and possibly less expensive. It leaves us with no versatility in choosing products.
Committing to Pro shop status, by spending the required amount gives a shop no alternative
but to force that product on you.
I can tell you about the taper and performance of every Cortland line, something that no pro shop can do. I
was around before the 444 line.  We didn't look into how to line two handed rods, we made it a study!! No
one in the area can match the proper line to a two handed rod like we can. In fact, there are Pro Shops that
don't know what a Switch rod is!
Pro Shop status is an ancient gimmick to fool the consumer and any company that clings to it will be left in
the dust!
"Also a great nymph line!"
