Airflo SuperFlo MAX Smooth Universal Taper Fly Line

The most versatile taper in the SuperFlo MAX smooth range — one line to cover it all.
The Airflo SuperFlo MAX Smooth Universal Taper is built for anglers who want a true do-it-all floating line.

From dry flies and dry-dropper rigs to light nymphing and small streamers, this taper handles it without fuss. If you’re moving between techniques on the Goulburn, prospecting pocket water or covering fish on a lake edge, this is the most adaptable option in the lineup.

Universal Taper (+0.5 Overweighted | 39’ Head)

Built +0.5 line weights heavy with a balanced 39-foot head, the Universal Taper offers easy loading and smooth turnover across multiple techniques.

• Excellent for dry-dropper applications

• Controlled turnover of indicator and light nymph rigs

• Clean dry fly presentations

• Enough authority for small streamers

The 39’ head strikes a balance between stability and manageability, while the slight overweighting helps bend contemporary rods without feeling overly aggressive. It’s the sweet spot if you want one line to do everything well.
