Description
Sits High, Mends Clean
The Scientific Anglers Sonar Stillwater Float Fly Line is a full-floating stillwater line built for fishing at or just below the surface and for working an indicator. It sits high, mends cleanly and holds control across a long cast. Overweighted by two line sizes, it loads quickly and turns over long leaders and multi-fly rigs, keeping your flies in the top of the water where fish are looking up.
Scientific Anglers Sonar Stillwater Float Key Features
- Full-floating profile for fishing at or near the surface and under an indicator
