The Cortland Fly Line Cleaner Lubricated Pads are designed to clean, condition, and extend the life of your fly line. Here’s what you should know about them:

Key Features:
1. Cleans & Removes Dirt – Gently removes grime, algae, and debris that can degrade fly line performance.
2. Lubricates & Conditions – Infused with a light silicone-based lubricant to reduce friction, improve casting, and protect the line.
3. Easy to Use – Simply pinch the pad around the line and pull through to clean and lubricate in one step.
4. Extends Line Life – Regular use helps prevent cracking, drying, and premature wear.
5. Compact & Portable – Small enough to carry in a vest or pack for on-the-go maintenance.

When to Use:
– After fishing in dirty or saltwater conditions.
– When your line starts feeling sticky or sluggish.
– As part of routine maintenance (every few outings).

How to Use:
1. Strip off a few feet of fly line from the reel.
2. Pinch the pad around the line and pull it through the length you want to clean.
3. Repeat if needed, especially for heavily soiled lines.
4. Store the pad in its container to keep it clean.
