Scientific Anglers Headway Belly Interm./Sink 3

Scientific Anglers has broken new ground in salmon fishing with the launch of the Headway Belly Interm./Sink 3, a line specifically designed for two-handed rods, the result of extensive research and close collaboration with salmon fishing experts in Scandinavia. This range represents the culmination of concerted efforts to meet the precise needs of salmon anglers, resulting in a line and tips of unprecedented quality and performance, ideal for novices and experienced anglers alike. The Headway Belly Interm./Sink 3, with its intermediate profile coupled with a level 3 sink rate, is perfectly suited to targeting salmon holding at medium depths. Designed to be used with a tip (their performance being suboptimal without one), this configuration allows customization according to fishing conditions, giving anglers the flexibility to adapt to different situations. Tapered tippets, compatible with this line, ensure precise turning of salmon flies, from the smallest to the largest, and can also enhance the performance of many other heads available on the market (sold separately). Available in floating, intermediate and S3 variants, and with tippets from 9 to 18 feet in six different sink densities (sold separately), this line offers remarkable versatility. The line's design, with weight distribution to the rear, is ideal for efficiently loading the fly rod and facilitating precise angled casts. An orange tracer at the rear end provides optimum visual control when casting and fishing, and the smooth transition between belly and tip guarantees harmonious casts and smooth loops. The line's textured outer layer, compared with traditional lines, facilitates water extraction before casting, and the unique Scientific Anglers identification on bellies and tips means anglers can always choose the right line for every fishing situation.
