Scientific Anglers Mastery Expert Distance
Description
Description
Scientific Anglers Mastery Expert Distance is a true-to-weight freshwater floating line built for one thing above all — distance. The compound head and extra-long rear taper release energy progressively so the line turns over with authority at range while the extended running line shoots freely for maximum reach. Because it is built to exact AFTMA weight it loads honestly and predictably across a wide range of rods which makes it a natural choice for casters working towards accreditation as well as anglers who simply want to cover more water. The high-visibility orange competition colour lets you track your loop and control the cast in cold and moderate conditions.
Technologies
- AST – Slickness additive that reduces friction improves shootability and keeps lines performing longer.
- Welded Loops – Durable welded loops on both the front and back of the line for easy reliable loop-to-loop connections to backing and leaders.
- SA-ID – Printed line identification for quick easy recognition on the water.
- Braided Multifilament Core – Supple cold-water core that improves flotation reduces memory and provides smooth stable casting.

Mastery Line Features
SA Mastery Series lines have been among our most-popular and best-performing lines. Mastery Series lines still deliver just as well as, if not better than they ever have before.
With the AST slickness additive, Dry-Tip technology, colour change at the rear of the head, and SA Line Identification system, Mastery lines are still the best smooth lines at their price point on the market.
