Product Details
Trusted Backing. Proven Strength.
Cortland Micron Fly Line Backing has set the gold standard in fly line backing for decades—and for good reason. Its tight, round braid offers superior strength and minimal friction, delivering smooth runs and flawless performance when big fish head for the horizon. Made from premium Dacron fibers, Micron is stretch-resistant and tangle-free, giving you total confidence when you’re deep into your backing.
Unlike loose or flat weaves, Micron lays evenly on the spool, knots cleanly, and stays true even after repeated use. Whether you're targeting trout, steelhead, or tarpon, this is the backing serious fly anglers trust to hold up under pressure.
