Airflo Superflo Max Ridge 2.0 Flats Tactical Floating 12' Clear Tip

12' clear tip. Stealth presentation. Built for laid-up flats fish.

The Airflo Max Ridge 2.0 Flats Tactical is the floating fly line built for the toughest sight-fishing conditions — bright sun, calm water, spooky fish. The 12-foot clear tip gives you the stealth advantage for delicate presentations when bonefish, permit, and stripers go laid-up and refuse anything that looks like a fly line landing nearby. The extended head with convex front taper means accurate, gentle delivery at the longer distances flats fish demand. Ridge 2.0 reduces guide friction so you get extra distance with less effort. Seven line weights from WF-6 to WF-12 cover the full flats fishing lineup — bonefish to tarpon.

Specs

Rigging & Use

• WF-6 / WF-7: bonefish, redfish in shallow water
• WF-8 / WF-9: bonefish, permit, snook, schoolie tarpon
• WF-10 / WF-11: tarpon up to 100 lb
• WF-12: trophy tarpon, GT, big inshore predators
• The 12' clear tip is the stealth tool — lay it down quietly, let the fly drift
• Best in calm conditions and clear water; in chop, a regular full-floating line works fine

Why We Like It

Flats fishing in calm bright conditions is the hardest fly fishing scenario there is — the fish see everything, including your fly line if it's the wrong color. The 12' clear tip solves the visibility problem without sacrificing castability. Pair that with Airflo's polyurethane coating that doesn't get stiff in tropical heat, and you've got a line built for the picky-fish moments where most other lines blow the shot. Worth the $150 if you fish flats more than a couple of weeks a year.
