Taking a well-thought-out approach to its creation, the Kelly Galloup Shovel Head Fast Sinking Fly Line lets you throw an 8-inch fly without busting out the 8wt rod, and even better, its heavy sink tip lets you fish neutrally buoyant streamers as deep as you like. A true streamer fly line, you can count on the Shovel Head Fast Sinking Fly Line to increase your streamer succes,s whether you're on Kelly's home waters of the Madison River or punching hefty hollow fleyes on the Allegheny.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower Core\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e - Power Core is Airflo's specific technology that makes for a tough fly line. Not only does it increase the strength of your line to allow for fighting heavy fish without hesitation, but its solid construction also reduces stretch when strip-setting so that you can connect with confidence. Coming in two different grain weights (280gr and 330gr), this fly line has a black sinking head section and neutral-colored running lines of gray (280gr) and green (330gr).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUses\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLarge Streamers\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e- Kelly designed this fly line specifically for freshwater streamer fishing, and not just any streamers, those large, bulky flies that you might think are impossible to cast without a 10wt rod, but thanks to Kelly and his \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eShovel Head Fast Sinking Fly Line\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e, you can leave the 10wt at home.

With an upper limit around 70 degrees, this isn't a fly line that you can expect to bring into warm water areas, or else you'll notice it begins to get limp.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTaper\/Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMore Mass Toward the Front of the Head\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e - With Airflo's Shovel Head Fast Sinking Fly Line, Kelly designed a taper that has extra weight that's pushed to the front of the line. This gives power and increases the load of your rod while allowing you to cast large and heavy streamers without it feeling clunky or forcing you to switch to a heavy-weight rod. It also assists when fishing out of a boat or when you need a fast recast to the brown that follows your fly to your feet and turns away. A well-designed but complex taper with grain weights that make for fast sinking, this line has a 70ft running line, a 5ft transitional rear taper, a 16ft belly, and a 3ft front taper that increases to a 6ft front tip. You can think of this taper as the ultimate choice whenever you're following Kelly's lead and fishing large flies for large fish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMore Info\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBest for:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e Freshwater, Trout \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLoops:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e Front welded loop (leader to fly line connection) and back welded loop (backing to fly line connection)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSinking\/Floating: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eSinking\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOther Resources\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/all\/tropical-saltwater-fly-line-shootout-buyers-guide\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e2020 Tropical Saltwater Fly Line Shootout \u0026amp; Buyer's Guide\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/all\/fly-line-shootout-review-buyers-guide\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eFly Line Temps: Tropical Vs.
