All Fly Fishing Gear

Scientific Anglers Absolute Tri-Color Sighter is made with proprietary copolymer blends that are designed to drastically reduce water absorption while maintaining an optimal suppleness for high knot strength. 

Why every fly fishing tool kit needs a Leader Straightener:

Compare to the Tie Fast Combo Tool, but at half the cost.

STANDARD: Our Standard EuroMax leaders are perfect for those who are just starting out with euro nymphing and learning to cast this type of rig.  It is the easiest version of our EuroMax line of leaders to cast because of the larger diameter butt section and they transfer energy well.  It is also the best option for fishing upstream with tuck cast presentations, or using heavier flies/streamers.  Great for dry-dropper rigs when using larger dries with more air resistance.  The trade-off is that you will have more sag at distance due to the larger diameter butt section. Our hand-built modular euro-nymphing sighter leaders have top-quality mono materials to ensure enough mass for water load casting, but minimal diameter to ensure as drag-free a drift as possible and allow for proper presentation.  Our Standard EuroMax leaders start with a 20lb (0.017) Maxima Chameleon butt section (various length), tapering to 15 lb (0.015) mid-section, to a 12lb (0.013) multi-color sighter.  They also include a high-quality 2mm tippet ring to preserve your leader with your various tippet applications over time. 

MICRO: Our thinnest diameter and most sensitive version of our EuroMax leaders; therefore, you will have less sag due to the thinner butt section.  The micro thin profile is for those who are already experienced in euro style casting, provides for the ultimate in strike detection and sensitivity, and best drift performance in windy conditions.   The MicroThin leader is best for maintaining dead drifts with across current presentations.  The micro version is more difficult to cast for distance, especially in windy conditions or with a dry-dropper set-up, since you have less mass in the line and therefore does not transfer energy as well, so that is the trade-off. Hand-built modular euro-nymphing sighter leaders using top-quality mono materials to ensure enough mass for water load casting, but minimal diameter to ensure as drag-free a drift as possible and allow for proper presentation.  Our EuroMax Micro Thin leaders start with a 10lb (0.012) Maxima Chameleon butt section (various length), tapering to 8lb (0.011) colored transition mid-section, to a 6lb (0.009) multi-color sighter.  They also include a high-quality 2mm tippet ring to preserve your leader with your various tippet applications over time.

Magnets make a lot of sense for hooks.  This box measures 7.5 x 4.0 x 0.75 inches and is organzied into 18 magnetized compartments.  We like that the box is lightweight, thin and can hold lots of bugs. This allows us to carry multiple of these slim boxes, which means we always have lots of flies to choose from.

Searching for one box to cover every situation you might come across during a long day on the river? Look no further than the Double Haul. With a massive 287 fly capacity, you’ll have plenty of room for a wide range of flies. Load one side with nymphs and the other with dry flies for an all-day-box that will keep you ready for variable hatch conditions.
