Joseph Smith owns this product
Entry-level fly fishing anglers searching for a floating trout line should consider the Orvis Clearwater fly line. The weight forward taper of the line makes casting this line easy so that novices can learn to feel the line load the fly rod. A welded loop at the front makes attaching leaders easy with a loop-to-loop connection.
Ideal for
- The taper of this fly line is easy to cast.
- This is a weight forward casting floating line.
- This is a good entry level all purpose fly line.
Not ideal for
- The finish on this fly line is not as good as higher quality lines.

Fly fishing-Clearwater Outfit kit
Originally posted at www.orvis.com on Sep 20, 2024I bought a Clearwater Orvis Outfit Kit, really well put together. I love it, this is my first fly fishing rod, so far I have not took it out on the water yet. I’ve done a fill practice casting in a gym. My friend is showing me the rope in fly fishing. He said this rod is so nice and really amazing and smooth. I can’t agree more!

I’m just a gal having fun learning to fly fish and ready to buy my own set up. Having minimal knowledge of what buy and loads of options out there, shopping can be a bit overwhelming. But, Johnny was so great to work with! His knowledge & attention to detail, and humor made it fun & easy figuring out a great starter set up best suited for me.

Matt helped me out of the fog and the overwhelming state I was in trying to buy my first Flyfishing set up…. I would still be fishing for gear a month from now if it wasn’t for him sticking his hand out to me.
5 /5
I’ve dealt with more than a handful of folks on fb marketplace that were downright aggressive, mean, and unhelpful to me over a series of exchanges in my search for gear. Matt was everything but. He not only pointed me in the right direction but he was friendly and knowledgeable as well. I needed all the help I could get and he was there. Thanknu again Matt.

I'm an intermediate angler with little knowledge of equipment. Rylyn was very responsive to all my questions, even the ones I thought were stupid. Very open about what he does and how he is paid. I highly recommend him.

I bought an open box Orvis fishing rod and it was at a great price. The condition of the rod and the shipping time exceeded my expectations. The information I received from Capt. Mark was accurate and helpful. I would definitely buy from Curated again.
