Airflo Sixth Sense 2 Sweep Fly Line

Stillwater fishing can be tough--whether it's a matter of fishing three flies at once or delicately dropping a single chironomid pupa in front of a fish that's been cruising and munching for the last thirty yards--Airflo's Sixth Sense 2 Sweep Line comes in to make things easy, stealthy, and give you that "sixth sense" ability whenever catching fish requires overtime efforts. Airflo designed this line to handle the trickiest stillwater situations with ease and subtlety; utilizing a unique head taper that features a long front taper, this line excels when presenting a brace of flies while the line's Low Stretch technology and braided core ensure that you always have reliable contact between your flies and your hand. Additionally, the line's well-thought-out taper lends itself to making long casts while making presentations soft, the ideal formula for stillwater success across a range of environments. Crafted in multiple densities including slow intermediate (.5ips), mid intermediate (1ips), and fast intermediate (1.5ips)--the Sixth Sense 2 Sweep Line has an option for efficiently covering all water columns, and with their added hang marker system that features one short marker at 10', two markers at 20', and one long marker at 40', it's never been easier to identify how much line is left in your retrieve. Available in line weights 7 and 8, the Sixth Sense 2 Sweep is ready for every stillwater trip you have planned, even when the environment calls for difficult conditions with the potential for double-digit fish.

Features

Low Stretch & Density Control - When it comes to subtle takes and the need to set the hook in a split second to find success, Airflo's Low Stretch technology is there to keep you in touch with your flies and set the hook home each time. This technology, coupled with the line's braided core, provides everything that you need whether you're fishing from shore or out of a belly boat. With their Density Control technology, Airflo provides precise control over where your flies are in the water through a consistent and predictable sink rate.

Uses

Midges/Chironomids, Nymphs, and Streamers - This intermediate line is made for fishing stillwater situations and it accommodates nearly every fly type you'll need for fishing under the water's surface. From stripping a leech to slowly crawling and all the way to fishing multiple midges at once, this line delivers them all with ease.

Temp

Cold/Moderate - Designed for use in stillwater environments and made to target trout, the Sixth Sense 2 Sweep Line is ready for temps ranging from 40 degrees all the way to 86 degrees. This allows you to fish in all comfortable temperatures for trout, and during those situations when you want to fine-tune your hooksets and have a local pond filled with chironomid-crunching panfish, you can get away with all of the practice you need without warmer water compromising your line.

Taper/Weight

Long Front Taper with More Mass in the Belly- Airflo carefully constructed this line's taper for tough stillwater situations. To make this line an excellent choice whether you're slowly working a Wooly Bugger or casting a trio of pupae, they've added a long front taper and focused the mass in the line's belly. This intricate taper effectively loads lines whether fishing on foot or floating, and it provides anglers the ability to bomb long casts with delicate presentation.
