SCIENTIFIC ANGLERS FREQUENCY SINK TIP TYPE III FLY LINE
In moving water, getting flies below the surface while maintaining control can present a challenge. That’s why sink tip fly lines were introduced. Scientific Angler took this idea, put it at an affordable price point, and came up with the Frequency Sink Tip. Featuring a Type III 10′ sinking tip, your fly will stay in the strike zone longer and avoid snagging the bottom on every cast. The Frequency Sink Tip is great for streamer fishing from a boat, while wading, or just about anywhere—mall water fountains excluded. It's not often you find such technology at such an affordable price...make sure you have this line rigged up!
FEATURES
- Ideal for streamers and wet flies for trout, steelhead, salmon, and smallmouth bass in moving water
- Fast-sinking 10’ tip sinks flies through the water column
- Mid-length head enhances control
- Best used in moving water
- Sink Rates: 2.5 – 4.0 ips (Type III)
- Braided multifilament core

Just got back from a steelhead trip on the Situk river where getting your presentation down quickly was very important. Line performed perfectly but if you are looking to get down in real deep river depths (deeper than 5-6 feet) you probably need a longer sink tip section

This is my first sink tip line. I ordered the 7 wt and use it with my vintage Fenwick FF 80 fiberglass 7-8-9 wt rod. Previously I had been using standard floating line with a sinking poly leader. This line gets me even more sink distance so I use it on the lake to fish deep. No complaints, high quality and great price.

Have only used this line for a few hours, so i cant speak to how well it holds up overtime... but this line has performed just as well as the more expensive sink tip line out there.
Highly recommend!
