1 / 7Piscifun Sword Weight-Forward Floating Fly Line, 8WT, 100 ft
Piscifun Sword fly line is a weight-forward floating line listed here in an 8-weight, 100-foot configuration. Its heavier front taper is intended to load the rod quickly, while the welded loop and front-to-reel marking aim to simplify rigging. Customer feedback is positive about casting and ease of use but mixed on flotation and loop durability.
At a glance
- Weight-forward taper concentrates additional weight and thickness in the initial 30-33 feet, according to the listing.
- The listing describes a braided core intended to have lower memory and a smooth PVC coating.
- Welded loops are described as helping with leader attachment, with exposed core loops also mentioned for backing connection.

What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing identifies this selection as WF-8F 100FT and lists line weight 8, while the title advertises a broader 3-8WT range and 90-100FT. Confirm the selected size and rod match before purchase. Saltwater suitability is inconsistent: one feature claims freshwater and saltwater use, while the product Q&A says it is mainly for freshwater and advises rinsing and drying after saltwater exposure. Loop descriptions also differ, with one passage describing loops for leader and backing and customer feedback noting that some users find a loop only at the tippet end. The line is stated not to include a leader, and backing is needed for a complete setup.
Who is it for?
A good fit for
- Anglers looking for a weight-forward floating line in the listed 8-weight, 100-foot configuration.
- Beginners who want a taper intended to load quickly and a marking to help orient the line during setup.
Less suited to
- Buyers who need a leader included in the package.
- Anglers who require assured flotation through a full drift or a confirmed welded loop at both ends.

Customer feedback highlights smooth casting, ease of use and perceived value, which may matter to anglers seeking a straightforward weight-forward line. Reports on flotation, durability and the welded loop are mixed, including both positive accounts and reports of sinking during a drift or loop failure. These are user-reported experiences, not assurances about performance. The listed welded-loop design and floating profile do not resolve those concerns for buyers who depend on reliable flotation or loop strength.
Positive themes
- Customers describe smooth casting and easy use.
- Customers report good value for money.
Mixed feedback
- Floatability reports differ, with some customers saying it floats well with dry flies and others reporting sinking during a drift.
- Durability reports differ, including both accounts of holding up to pike and reports of a welded loop ripping out.
- Welded-loop feedback is mixed, including differing reports about loop construction and location.
