SA Spey Skagit Float Head A heavy-duty floating fly line section designed to turn over large flies and heavy sink tips with ease, offering Australian fly fishers a powerful tool for two-handed casting. The Scientific Anglers Spey Skagit Float Head is built for those situations where you need to move a lot of mass with minimal back-cast room. Its short, powerful taper excels at loading Spey rods quickly, making it a go-to choice for chasing large species in flowing water. By concentrating the weight in a compact head, it generates the kinetic energy required to punch through wind and deliver bulky streamers or heavy tungsten tips to the target. Whether you are swinging for sea-run trout in Tasmanian rivers or targeting heavy-hitting freshwater species, this Skagit head provides a reliable and manageable casting experience. Key Features Short, Powerful Taper: Engineered with a condensed mass to easily load fast-action Spey and switch rods with minimal effort. Massive Turnover Capability: Designed to handle the heaviest sink tips and largest flies in your box without collapsing during the forward stroke. High-Float Technology: Features advanced buoyancy polymers to ensure the head stays high on the surface for easier mending and lifting. Integrated Braided Core: Built on a low-stretch core to provide better strike detection and more immediate power transfer during the cast. Welded Looping System: Includes neat, factory-welded loops at both ends for quick and secure connections to your running line and tips. Advanced Shooting Texture: Developed with a specialised surface that reduces friction through the guides, allowing for increased distance and smoother shoots. Line Identification Marking: Features a clear, printed ID on the loop, making it simple to identify the specific weight and length in your kit. Best For Spey anglers who need a dependable floating base for a versatile sink-tip system in river environments. Fly fishers targeting large, aggressive fish that require the use of weighted flies and fast-sinking tips. Distance-focused casters who want a head that loads deeply and shoots cleanly, even in tight, timbered bank scenarios.
