Description
Scientific Anglers Amplitude Smooth Anadro Indicator is a one and a half size heavy nymphing taper built for long-distance mending exceptional line control and clean high-visibility tracking. Designed for heavy multi-fly rigs swinging flies or technical indicator setups it loads modern rods effortlessly while maintaining stability over long drifts. Its extended rear taper and smooth coating provide accuracy subtle lift and dependable performance in cold and moderate climates.
Technologies
- AST+ – Advanced slickness coating that reduces friction improves shootability and maintains slick performance far longer.
- Welded Loops – Durable welded loops on both the front and back of the line for easy reliable loop-to-loop connections to backing and leaders.
- Improved Dry Tip – Specialised formulation that increases tip flotation for cleaner drifts and better control.
- SA-ID – Printed line identification for quick easy recognition on the water.
- Braided Multifilament Core – Supple cold-water core that improves flotation reduces memory and provides smooth stable casting.

Amplitude Smooth Line Features
Scientific Anglers took their revolutionary AST Plus slickness additive and put it into the Amplitude Smooth Series. These lines are smooth like traditional lines, but have increased durability and slickness due to the AST Plus, which is mixed directly into the coatings.
Each line is built with three colours to identify the separate parts of the line, and welded loops for quick and easy rigging.
