Nextcast Nordic 2D FF Shooting Head Floating

The shooting head systems from NEXTCAST are becoming increasingly popular. Especially among ambitious salmon and steelhead anglers, there has been a true hype surrounding the well-thought-out shooting heads in recent years. We too have come to love the customized, user-friendly tapers and are delighted each time by the fantastic casting properties they offer. In addition to the highly popular two-handed shooting heads and the matching tips and running lines, the extensive collection also includes very successful lines for modern streamer fishing for trout. We particularly appreciate that there is definitely the right line for every casting style and water condition in the Nextcast range.

 

Nextcast Nordic Shooting Heads:

The Nordic shooting heads are brand new to the Nextcast line-up. They are the successors to the extremely popular SalarFinder shooting heads, which were the benchmark for many salmon anglers when it comes to double-handed line systems for salmon and sea trout for many years. Especially the special taper design, the durability of the coating, and last but not least the incredible user-friendliness when casting and fishing made these lines so popular, and it is precisely these aspects that Nextcast has picked up to create a worthy successor.

The new Nordic shooting heads combine the best of both worlds of the SalarFinder40 and SalarFinder45 lines with some changes in taper design and coating composition. The length of the belly lies between these two predecessors and is thus a bit longer than the Zone heads - perfect for medium to large waters. The belly and back taper have been designed a bit thinner, allowing for an even cleaner, smoother presentation of the line and improving its sinking properties, especially in stronger currents. The coating composition has been refined, making the TPU coating a bit softer and gentler without sacrificing durability. It is the most delicate, smoothes, and stable salmon line Nextcast has ever developed!

The Nordic lines are also available in a variety of sink rates thanks to the multidensity approach, covering a very wide range of applications. The taper of the shooting heads has been developed especially for effective casts and clean presentations over medium to long distances. The weight in the line is distributed in such a way that high line speeds can be achieved with little effort, resulting in tighter loops and more efficient, energy-saving casts. So whether it's the start of the season with high water and cold temperatures or in midsummer with long, fine leaders in extremely delicate conditions, the new Nordic line-up is sure to have the right line for your area of use and your two-handed rod. Additionally, Nextcast also offers the choice between a flexible multi-tip system (2D + sink tip) or, thanks to the single-piece line, a seamless 3D line without any loop connections. The Choice is Yours!
 

Nordic 2D - The flexible multi-tip shooting heads
These shooting heads are designed to function as a multi-tip system. Belly + sink tip have to be combined to give the final casting weight. This interchangeable tip system offers maximum flexibility on the water, allowing for quick adaptation to different water conditions. By choosing the tip, you can not only adjust the final sinking rate but also the casting behavior depending on the length (and weight) of the tip. Additionally, the core component of the system, the body, comes in many different sink options. From full-floating to sink 5/sink 7, all sinking rates are covered, allowing you to pack the right shooting head for every water, every season, and every condition. Combined with a few different sink tips (available separately), you can react extremely quickly to any weather and water condition.

Note: This line should be combined with a tip to function ideally. The final casting weight therefore consists of the body + tip.

 

Our recommendation: You achieve the most harmonious results when pairing your Nordic 2D shooting head with Nextcast tips in 10 ft. or 12 ft. Good two-handed casters looking for maximum distance on a heavier two-handed rod can also pair the Nordic 2D heads well with 15 ft. tips for even better casting distances.
