Airflo Superflo Max Scout Floating Line

Trading efficiency for casting inconvenience, Airflo's all-new Superflo Max Scout Floating Line lets you make two-handed casts that shoot like a rocket. A design that focuses on efficient delivery and versatility across a range of environments and situations, this line transfers energy smoothly instead of it getting lost in the casting and flexing of the line. This ensures that all of your two-handed presentations are butter-smooth and also aids in precision whenever you see the exact lie a fish has taken but need a 95' cast to get there. Built in a wide range of grain weights that start at 180 and go all the way up to 600, the Superflo Max Scout Floating Line gives you an option whether you're doing light trout Spey work or sending a bomber into a crystal clear run for tank Atlantics.

Features

Power Loop, Low Stretch, Superflo Max, and Line Tag - Carefully constructed to find success in a wide variety of situations, Airflo outfits this head with all of the technology you need. Starting with their Power Loop, this line's equipped with ultra-strong loops that hold fish tightly and make swapping heads and leaders as easy as it gets. For added convenience, their Line Tag clearly shows all of the specs that you need to prevent you from driving to the water with a 600-grain head and a 4-weight trout Spey rod.

Airflo's Superflo Max technology is here to make long casts effortless and reduce friction across your guides. This proprietary material formulation makes for super-clean transfers across the line's taper with reduced friction in the line, allowing anglers to hit those across-the-river targets with the blink of an eye. And when you set the hook into something like a chromed-out steelhead, Airflo's Low Stretch tech is there to ensure nothing compromises your set. This technology creates minimal stretch in the line, so you never need to worry.

Uses

Since the Superflo Max Scout Floating comes in so many grain weight options and is just a head that you'll affix to a running line, its uses are nearly endless. Whether you're grabbing one of the lighter-weight heads to swing wet flies on a trout Spey, one of the medium-weight heads to strip streamers for smallmouth, or going with one of the heavier options to take on a trip for freshly run Atlantic salmon, this head has an option for it all. Its floating configuration accommodates a ton of different flies, ranging from small soft hackles and wet flies to heavy Intruders and even large Bombers.

Temp

Cold to Moderate - A line that's designed with environmental versatility, the Superflo Max Scout is built for use in temps ranging from 23 to 79 degrees. This wide range of temps accommodates a ton of different angling situations across all four seasons.

Taper/Weight

More Mass in the Belly w/ a Lighter Front Taper - Airflo's Scout taper is designed to send long casts with full control of the fly's delivery. This is made possible by focusing the mass of the head in the belly with a 6' front taper that lets casts land nice and softly. The Scout is a well-designed and carefully thought-out taper that serves you across many different situations, fly styles, and water sizes.
