Scientific Anglers Sonar Stillwater Intermediate Fly Line

A Steady Sink for the Top of the Column

The Scientific Anglers Sonar Stillwater Intermediate Fly Line is a steady 1.7 ips line for searching the top few feet of the water column. It sinks slowly and evenly, keeping flies riding just below the surface on a consistent track so you can cover water with control. Reach for it when a moderate, even descent is what the fish want.

Scientific Anglers Sonar Stillwater Intermediate Key Features

• Steady 1.7 ips sink rate keeps flies riding just below the surface
• Overweighted by two line sizes for turning over long leaders and multiple flies
• 10-foot and 20-foot textured hang markers for precise depth counting and lift control
• Light Grey / Olive Drab colour scheme

Best Used For

• Stillwater fishing in the top few feet where a slow, even descent matters
• Covering water on a consistent track with flies just below the surface
• Long leaders and multi-fly rigs when the fish want a moderate sink

Technologies

• AST Plus – Advanced slickness additive that reduces friction, improves shootability and keeps the line performing longer.
• Welded Loops – Durable welded loops front and back for easy reliable loop-to-loop connections to backing and leaders.
• SA-ID – Printed line identification showing taper, weight and density for quick recognition.
• Sonar – Density-tuned sinking technology that delivers a smooth stable sink profile and consistent depth control through the retrieve.
• Audible Reference Point (ARP) – Textured band that produces a feelable, audible click through the guides, marking the ideal overhang point for loading the cast.
• Braided Multifilament Core – Supple cold-water core that improves flotation, reduces memory and provides smooth stable casting.
