The Pikemaniac is designed for fly fishing for pike, when you need to cast large flies with a line that really loads the rod. Its 12-meter head provides mass, while the 4-meter handling section helps control a long line in the air. The progressive-density versions maintain better contact with the fly by limiting the belly effect during the descent. The SloMo works slowly just below the surface; the Fast Intermediate to Sink 3 sinks gradually down to an S3 tip; and the Sink 3 to Sink 6 targets deeper layers. The choice depends on the depth, retrieval speed, and desired fly action.
