Easy-Loading Skagit Fly Line

Two hand anglers that need to get sink tips delivered to bouldery runs with minimal back casts have chosen Skagit-style heads as the perfect tool for the job. Despite extra short and other more specialized Skagit-style lines available, the Skagit Compact is still the standard, and has been redesigned and reborn as the all new Skagit Driver. This Skagit line is the culmination of thousands of hours of design, observation, and field testing. The new generation has been redesigned to sit lower in the water, helping to better load the rod when making the cast. Its unique density also slows the swing down while fishing. The improved design will get you casting more efficiently and keep you more connected to your fly through the entire step, cast, swing ritual.

Sink tips: All Skagit heads are designed to exclusively be used with sink tips. For the Skagit Compact G2, both FLO tip and CCT style sink tips are recommended.

Running Lines: The Skagit Compact G2 includes the head only and requires a running line. Please browse our running line options to see which one suits your purposes.
