Floating Fast S5 Sink Tip Fly Line
Black Head/Olive running line
These lines are designed and made with a floating line and integrated sink tip with varying sin rates so you can fine tune it with your application. Each sink rate will allow you to fish at different depths, with different flies, and better target specific species of fish, or types of water. Each different Sink Tip is color coordinated so if you have multiple tips you can tell which is which based off of color. If you forget, the lines are also laser engraved to help you identify your line as well. It is constructed with a PVC coating, and a 25lb low stretch braided core. This gives this line the a slick coating for smooth casting, and performance. The low stretch is important for strike detection. These lines all come in a 4wt through 8wt.
Sink Tip Features
The S5 Tip has a 4.5-6.0 ips ( fishing depth of 15-20 feet) This is the ideal line to use when fishing deep lakes, or fast moving bodies of water.

Leader Recommendations
When fishing with this line it is important to pair the proper leader setup. Having the proper setup will ensure the greatest amount of success. When you are trying to get your fly down into the feeding zone quickly you want to use a shorter leader. We recommend using the Moonlit HOGzilla Leader. It is made of fluorocarbon with a reinforced core, and its short length will give you a good uniform sink between fly, leader, and line. You can use a straight 5-7 ft of straight fluorocarbon line as your leader as well, or a tapered fluorocarbon leader no longer than 7 1/2 ft leader.
