SC Micro Thin Dry Fly Floating Fly Line with Overhang Marker
<b>Pre Orders Ship on<b></b></b> {DATE_WILL_BE_SHOWN_HERE}
Designed by England international Stuart Crofts, it’s a real honour to have his name on this taper. This micro thin dry and nymph line is tuned for 5 to 40 feet, so it loads clean at real fishing range and lays flies down with a quiet, gentle touch when fish are rising. The white Overhang Marker makes loading consistent so your casts feel repeatable, not lucky, on smaller rivers, stillwaters, and shorter rods.
Description
A PVC-coated floating fly fishing line.
Designed with Stuart Crofts’ eye for detail, this line is all about quiet, close-range control. Crofts is known in the UK for blending serious insect knowledge with practical fishing, and he’s taught entomology for anglers through organisations like the Freshwater Biological Association and the Riverfly Partnership. He’s also a dedicated dry-fly angler on tight, tree-lined Yorkshire streams, where soft presentation and clean drifts matter most.

This is my favourite small stream line. Presentation is delicate & it loads quickly for relatively short casts. It also roll casts well.
I have this line in 2 and 4 wt and they cast a LONG way, are easy to lift, roll cast well and are accurate. I recommended this line to my fishing buddies and will keep doing so. Until you try one, you can’t know, after you do you will be a believer! The pic is of a 9” Creek Chub caught on my 2 wt rid. You can see the gray colored SC line on the reel, which is the point. I was “Creek Chubbin” and had to make accurate casts at a short (20-25’) distance. This line handled that well, too. The closest trout to where I live are about 200 miles away.
I fished a 7' 6" 2 weight Microlite with 1 weight Stuart Crofts' line & 14' leader. Caught plenty of wild trout
Hi Sunray Team,
My first impression is Wow.. ! Used normally the other brands , and this Line is so a completely different.
So thin, no memory, and the loop is so slick / smooth !
The loop it self has no ( or little) coating, and the transition to the line is so slick and smooth.
It runs with no resistant through the guides. The loop we all know, are always stiff and do get caught up in the guides,
the coating will brake after a while.
off course the line casts perfect . (use a 7'' #3 Rod)
( also bought the 50yards Backing, also a perfect product.)
Thank you
Best regards
I paired the #3 SC Dry Fly Line with my G.Loomis NRX LP 8'8" having used DT lines until now. First time out was into double figure wild browns on a large scottish river. I used the line with a 5 1/2 ft furled leader. The line cast very easily with excellent control and mended nicely, accuracy at distance was very good. I had 3 fish after shooting the line a fair bit past the overhang marker, distances I wouldn't have normally attempted with DT lines due to the risk of making a mess, the line cast perfectly. For a couple of hours it got pretty windy, I continued as normal when I usually would have called it a day. Overall the line is a pleasure to use providing a combination of delicate presentation, and accuracy, I honestly didn't think the line would make so much of a difference to my fishing and was a bit hesitant to make the change, very glad I did - excellent product !
I used Line Slik as recommended by Tom, while I can't say how the flotation properties compare to Red Mucilin but I definitely found it much much easier to work with and will also be using it on my furled leaders going forward. I have the World Nymph Line for my Maxia SX 10ft 2wt which I will be trying out just shortly and am looking forward to trying the Hybrid Tippet when fishing dries.
I ordered the Short/Medium Range Dry Fly Line with Overhang marker. I only lawn cast it but could not believe how easy it was to cast to more than 40-50 feet if needed. It formed tight loops and very accurate. Can’t wait to try it on the water when temps warm up some more.
Great delivery
Haven’t used this line yet am looking forward to using this line very soon.
Very smooth cast. My wife was having trouble with her casts. Switched out to the micro thin, what a world of difference.
Highly recommend this fly line.
Haven't used this one yet, however I have been very impressed with the 3 other Sunray lines I've bought, and their leaders too.

So easy to cast, its cheating.
Thanks, Chris! Delighted to hear you’re enjoying the line — smooth, effortless casting is exactly what we aim for.
Love it!
Cast great, 2nd line from SR and theyre both the best lines i’ve used.
Short / Medium Range Dry Fly Line with Overhang Marker®️
In range 0-4 wt I fish only sunray.
I have lots of lines diferent producers but That one suits me the best,
The feel in hand, how it cast. Great product.
We're delighted to hear you're impressed with the feel and performance of your new fly line. Tight lines ahead!
Wow! Flies through the rings.
Used my #2 weight Stuart Crofts line for the first time yesterday. I paired it to #3 rod which for me is perfect . The line worked faultlessly in blustery conditions. It was accurate at short and long range , coped really well with the wind . Very happy thankyou
This line is a perfect match for my Sunray 1wt California Glass 8’ rod and the combination performed perfectly last week presenting small dries at close range to rising fish on the on the Wylye accurately, gently and drag free.
Good to hear this Graham. Thanks for taking the time to review, from all at Sunray HQ.
I’m really pleased with the line it casts well
Great line for my 7'6" 4wt rod in smaller rivers. Very easy to cast, I seem to cast further with less effort. I think a 6wt for my other rod will be coming in the future.

I have just bought my sixth one of these lines.
You have to be sure you understand what you are buying. As long as you do, I think they are good value (especially if you buy them in the sale... sorry JL)...
These lines are over weighted for their designated #wt. This is NOT a bad thing, you just need to know. They compare, weight wise, very similarly to the specialist Rio single handed spey which cost twice as much. However they are slimmer and an appealingly stealthy dull, neutral colour.
Very good for loading a stream rod at close quarters where you are casting at less than 30 feet. Roll casts very nicely. Good lines for the beginner/improver to try if you feel the usual fly line doesn’t seem to give you enough sensation of load or “feel” on the forward cast.
The tip can crack up a bit with use but this doesn’t seem to impact on effectiveness in practice.
As always keep it clean, dry it out and use line dressing regularly.
I have no financial or other interest in Sunray.
I have used only lines from Sunray for over two years and am delighted.
Great to hear Vaclav. Your positivity and the time taken to leave a review is much appreciated by the Sunray Team.
I already have the two and three weight micro thin lines, they cast really well and present very delicately. I find them particularly good in conditions you might normally use a line several weights heavier.
Impressed with the quick delivery, however, I have a question. My Sunray Stuart Crofts #3 fly line (bought in 2020), has the thin exposed core loop (white colour) at the front end of the line. My new #4 line has it at the rear end with the thicker welded loop on the front – has there been a design change?
I have the 3wt SC micro thin dry fly line. It presents neatly. Perfect for those skittish fish that require a delicate presentation at distance. The only thing to note is that you really need 30ft of line out to properly load the rod, but that is what I expected. I plan to carry this spool in my bag to swap on when I encounter those conditions requiring longer casts and delicate presentations.
unfortunately it hasn't arrived yet 🤷
