Description

Scientific Anglers Sonar Grand Slam Clear Tip is a three-quarter heavy tropical sink-tip line built for targeting fish on warm flats. Its 8 foot clear intermediate tip adds stealth and helps the fly reach depth quickly while the short powerful head turns over heavy flies. It suits boat and wade anglers fishing streamers and crustacean patterns.

Technologies
