One of the all-time classics, the Cortland 444 “peach” line has set a standard for durability and all-round performance for over 50 years. It's still one of the easiest handling lines on the market today, as well as one of the most supple in the coldest water. The high-floating, distinctively visible 444 Classic shoots through the guides without hesitation to turn over the longest, finest leaders. Now available with a welded front loop for easy leader rigging. Yes, we were actually able to improve a classic.
