Combining one of their most popular tapers with a unique triple density formula, Scientific Anglers Sonar Titan Hover/Sink 2/Sink 4 Fly Line makes it easy to maintain the right depth and present those bulky streamers.

Equipped for use in both saltwater or freshwater, this line is just the right choice whether you’re presenting bulky Game Changers to musky or slim sand eels to striped bass. Thanks to the Sonar Titan Hover/Sink 2/Sink 4 Fly Line, gone are the days of clunky casts and wishing you could buy your cast another fifteen feet.
Features
SA Line ID, Advanced Shooting Technology, Sonar Sinking Technology, and Shooting Texture - Built with a focus on clean delivery and a reliable sink, Scientific Anglers utilizes a variety of proprietary technologies to make the Sonar Titan Hover/Sink 2/Sink 4 Fly Line the best that it can be. Starting with their Advanced Shooting Technology (AST) and combining it with their Shooting Texture, this line has a patented dry-slick tech that provides excellent line slickness while repelling dirt and other water-borne contaminants, and the Shooting Texture is a series of hemispherical divets that reduce surface texture and aid durability. From there, SA adds their Sonar Sinking Technology--a proprietary tungsten formulation and unique tapering that gets your flies deep and keeps them in just the right zone. And to ensure you’re never wasting time trying to identify which line is which, this series has the SA Line ID, which is a marking system on the first 1’-2’ of the line for quick identification.
Uses
Streamers - Scientific Anglers’ Sonar Titan Hover/Sink 2/Sink 4 Fly Line was designed specifically for fishing with streamers. From small Wooly Buggers to large Hollow Fleyes, this is a line that can deliver them all. With an aggressive taper and reliable sink rate, this line makes it easy to cast streamers of almost any size and ensures that your flies are always in just the right strike zone.
Temp
Cold/Moderate - Built for use in cold to moderate fresh and saltwater, this line has a wide range of applications. Whether you’re stripping sculpins in February or casting Clousers off the coast of Jersey in May, you can count on this line for most of your cold to moderate water needs. Should you find yourself in a tropical situation with the Sonar Titan Hover/Sink 2/Sink 4 Fly Line, you’ll notice that it will go limp and soften up.
Taper/Weight
More Mass Towards the Front of the Head - Built on their Titan Taper, Scientific Anglers’ Sonar Titan Hover/Sink 2/Sink 4 Fly Line has a short and aggressive taper with more mass at the front. This taper allows you to load your rod effectively and deliver streamers of nearly any size. Not only that, but it also makes for great turnover and easy casting so that hitting your target is never an issue.
