由 Will Hovarter The Scientific Anglers Frequency Sink Tip (117258) is a versatile fly line designed for anglers who need a sinking tip to get their flies down quickly in various water conditions. Here’s a breakdown of its key features:
Key Features:
– Sink Rate: The Frequency Sink Tip line has a Type III sinking tip, meaning it sinks at approximately 3 inches per second (IPS), making it ideal for moderate currents and depths.
– Head Length: The 24-foot sinking tip is followed by a floating running line, allowing for easy casting while maintaining depth control.
– Weight: Available in standard fly line weights (e.g., 5wt, 6wt, 7wt, 8wt), matching common rod setups.
– Versatility: Great for streamers, nymphing, and wet flies in rivers, lakes, and stillwaters.
– Durable Coating: Scientific Anglers’ high-quality coatings ensure smooth shooting and long-lasting performance.
Best Uses:
– Trout & Bass Fishing: Effective for streamer fishing in deeper runs or when targeting fish holding near the bottom.
– Cold Water Conditions: The sinking tip helps keep flies in the strike zone longer in cooler temperatures when fish are deeper.
– Switch & Spey Casting: Works well with two-handed rods for swinging flies.
Alternatives:
– If you need a faster sink rate, consider SA Sonar Sink Tip (Type V or VII).
– For a full sinking line, the SA Frequency Full Sink is another option.
