- New
Environmentally friendly because they are PVC-free, Monic Saltwater Master bonefish lines are ‘Low Stretch’ lines designed to be easy to cast even in windy conditions.
The 15 foot 4.57m transparent stealth floating tip of the new Monic Phantom Tip special bonefish line reduces the risk of disturbing/scaring the fish when presenting the fly, and also allows the angler to use a shorter leader in strong winds.
With an aggressive front taper combined with an extended belly and a progressive rear taper, this line will always cast effortlessly, but will allow for a more delicate landing on the water.
A must-try for all bonefish fishing.
Available for three rod weights: #7, #8 and #9.
Made in the USA.

Taper
The Bonefish taper gives the angler the perfect mix of a gentle stealth presentation paired with the aggressiveness to combat high wind conditions and deliver long accurate casts.
With an aggressive front-taper design paired with a more elongated belly and gradual rear taper, this line will still shoot line effortlessly but will allow for a more delicate landing on the water which is key when fishing shallow flats to spooky Bonefish.
Core
This new Phantom Tip series uses our new semi-stiff low-stretch saltwater core.
The minimal stretch allows for excellent sensitivity and powerful hook-sets while still allowing to anneal/straighten the line easily with a simple hand stretch.
This added stiffness will also help retain the character of the line in extreme heat.
Coating
Our Phantom Tip series utilizes our new STS Phantom Tip coating system bringing the best of stealth, slickness, and visibility into one package.
The 15 foot stealth tip (from front loop to mid belly) reduces the chances of lining/spooking fish when presenting the fly, and can also allow the angler to use a shorter leader in windy conditions.
The remainder of the line, with its bright green color, gives great visibility for tracking the line on the water and while casting.
With our game changing STS slickness formula uniformly built into the coating, the slick properties will never wear off, maintaining superb line-shooting ability while also improving durability and overall life of the line.
Line Weights
All Phantom Tip - Bonefish lines are weighted on the heavy side of the true AFFTA standards.
You can see the weight ranges in the chart pictured here (weights are measured from the first 30 ft of the head).
Many fly lines in today's market are vastly over-weighted, sometimes up to 3 sizes.
At Monic, we understand that not every angler is using a fast action rod or wants an ultra-heavy fly line forced into their hands.
That is why we want to leave the decision up to you.
After all, nobody knows your rod and fishing style better than you do.
