Rio InTouch Skagit Max GameChanger Shooting Head F/H/I/S3
Multiple Density Skagit Heads for easy casting with large flies and sink tips!
RIO’s INTOUCH SKAGIT MAX GAMECHANGER heads are the perfect delivery system for casting large flies and sink tips. The heads feature RIO’s Multi Density Control - a seamless blend of three or four different densities that ensures the smoothest transition of energy when casting, and the very best depth control when fishing. Say goodbye to hinging, weak casts and poor turnover with these killer heads. Each head is built with an ultra-low stretch core for the maximum in sensitivity and performance.
F/H/I/S3 (Float/Hover/Int./Sink3): This option is ideal for adding type 3 and type 6 tips, as well as regular “T” tips., and good for swinging between 4ft and 8ft down (120 cm to 240 cm).
Rio Technology:
- ConnectCore: Rio'S InTouch fly lines come with an ultra-low stretch ConnectCore Technology which improves the overall feeling for handling the line while casting and fishing. As well it makes hook sets much more effective, even with long line.
- XS (Extreme Slickness): Every fly fisherman is looking for a slicker line, and for good reason. Slicker line means longer casts, which is something all anglers strive to achieve. XS Technology is the latest development from RIO's lab coats that focuses on creating an ultra slick line, with dirt-repelling tendencies.
