"Sweetness!"

Garrett on 2/12/2019 1:23:53 PM

Review: I love the Airflo Skagit Scout head. I use it on my 4wt and 6wt switch rods. I love the length of the head and the ease of casting it. I can be waist deep and next to the bank with zero room for a D loop and set my anchor, creep into my sweep and once in position for my forward roll cast, simply use a bit more bottom hand and the line is gone! If I need to cast for distance, I let the head hang a bit more outside the tip of the rod, incorporate a bit more speed in my casting stroke and make spey cast as long as needed while still maintaining a nice loop to turn over the fly. I like how the weight in the taper is towards the rear of the line and this seems to help load my rods easier, meaning in situations where I have to creep like molasses into my sweep and shallow D loop the rod is loaded enough to perform my forward roll cast with easy and yet cast to my target with little or no effort. I highly recommend this line to anyone who has a switch rod and cast it tight spots but also wants the versatility to cast for distance without sacrificing line loop control.

"not bad"

Tony on 2/7/2019 12:57:10 PM

Review: For trout spey work Scout is pretty solid but I prefer the shorter head length of the Scientific Anglers Spey Lite Skagit. Too many times I feel like I'm beyond the trout with Scout. Solid casting but too long!

"Another Sweet Skagit from Airflo"

Ryan on 1/29/2017 3:48:37 PM

Review: I have loved fishing Commando heads since they came out, and was curious to try Airflo's version of super short skagit. It is excellent, especially on 6-8wt switch rods. It has a lot of weight in the rear which creates a lot of power. I only have 2 complaints: 1. it has a lot of memory in cold weather conditions 2. The loop on the rear is way too big for stripping flies for trout or bass. It gets stuck every cast. So for steelhead/salmon applications I love this line but for trout or active stripping scenarios go Commando.

"Service"

Ronald Bochsler on 10/26/2016 11:11:57 AM

Review: Your service is hard to beat. I placed two orders a week apart (free shipping) and both showed up on my doorstep a couple days later. I highly recommend. Very fast delivery and right on.
