Scientific Anglers Mastery Series Saltwater Sinking Fly Line - Tarpon

Tarpon Specialty Taper

Applications:

• Sinks a few feet deep, beyond wind and chop
• The ultimate low-visibility sinking tarpon line
• Smooth-handling, tangle-free, fast-casting design
• Stiffer core improves shootability and distance
• Also excels for other larger tropical species

Sink Rate:  2.0-2.5 ips

Taper Characteristics:

• Shorter head for quick casts to cruising tarpon and also minimizes false casting with large flies
• Ideal head and taper length for the optimal casting balance between distance, accuracy, and speed
• Larger tip diameter and short front taper provide extra power for delivering large flies
• Advanced taper improves line performance in the wind without compromising delivery
• Compound taper head provides easy turnover under the most demanding saltwater conditions
