Airflo Superflo Max Skagit Comp F.I.S.T. Sinking Line

The Airflo Superflo Max Skagit Comp F.I.S.T. is a triple-density Skagit head built for anglers who need to turn over heavy sink tips and big flies with ease. Designed for modern two-hand rods, this line combines a floating rear section, an intermediate mid-section, and a type-3 sinking tip, giving you a smooth progressive sink that keeps your fly in the strike zone while maintaining excellent line control.

• Purpose: Ideal for steelhead, salmon, and large trout fishing with Skagit setups. Built to launch heavy sink tips, intruders, and weighted flies.

• Taper Design: Short, powerful front taper that turns over big payloads, with a rear taper that sticks in the anchor for efficient sustained-anchor casting.

• Grain Weights: Available in sizes from 450 grains to 660 grains, covering everything from lightweight trout spey to heavy 8-weight two-handers.

• Line Density: Triple-density “F.I.S.T.” (Float/Intermediate/Sink-Three) design—rear floats for easy mending, middle section slips just below the surface, front sinks at ~3 in/sec to keep the tip and fly down.

• Coating & Handling: Superflo ultra-supple coating stays flexible across a wide temperature range, reducing memory and allowing smooth shooting in both cold and moderate climates.

• Color: Dual-tone with a high-vis rear section for easy tracking and a stealthy, darker front for subtle presentation.

• Water Temperature Range: Optimized for cold to temperate water, making it a versatile choice from Pacific Northwest winter steelhead rivers to summer runs in Alaska and BC.

 

Why We Like It:
The Max Skagit Comp F.I.S.T. blends depth control with castability better than any other Skagit head. You get the ability to swing flies deep while still maintaining control of your head and tip, making it a must-have tool for serious two-hand anglers.
