"GO-TO" CASTING INSTRUCTOR FLY LINE
Proudly made in the U.S.A, the Ballistic 57 Pro Performance is an absolute dry fly sniper. The long, 57-foot taper excels at delivering text-book presentations to picky trout at a distance.
Why is the Ballistic 57 Pro Performance designed with a 57-foot head? Having an extended rear taper, a long powerful mid-section, and a soft-landing front taper allows for anglers, pro or not, to easily cast long distances. We’ve found that this 57-foot taper profile strikes a balance between line control, accuracy, and loop stability. The combination of these three characteristics is critical in a long-distance dry fly line.

A PROVEN TAPER PROFILE
An original Lee Davison design, the 57 Pro Performance is built around a long 57' head for powerful roll-out and accuracy at distance, and excellent mend-ability. Developed with Fly Fishers International CCI or MCI Casting Instructor exams in mind, Pro Performance has continued to be the "go-to" line for many instructors worldwide, and it has become a favorite all-purpose fishing taper that punches tight loops and delvers soft landings.
