CLEARANCE SALE! – RIO Skagit Max Shooting Head – 50% OFF!

The easiest casting, most powerful Skagit head ever made.

Use Skagit Max heads on rods between 12’ and 13’6”

The Skagit Max is an exceptionally easy casting Skagit style shooting head that will cast big flies, and the heaviest sinking tips with the utmost of ease.

A unique taper design not only casts all the nasty stuff associated with Skagit fishing, but also forms beautiful loops and is extremely pleasant to cast.

The head is built on Rio’s ultra-low stretch ConnectCore for the utmost in casting control and sensitivity, and has a highly visible orange section loop for easy recognition.

It is available in a multitude of lengths and weights to cover all rod and angling situations.
