Advanced Flight Spey Shooting Heads Have a very unique taper design that easily loads up a spey rod either foroverhead casting, or for spey, or the underhand casting style. The short body section and long, fine front taper efficiently transfers energy down the length of the head and results in great turnover and a precise presentation of the fly. Incredibly tight loops and effortless casts of easy distance are a result of this unique taper design.
These AFS floating shooting heads are steelhead orange so the angler can track the head and control the fly speed as it swings through the current.
Both ends of the AFS head features a small, neat welded loop. Attach a suitable shooting line to the rear loop - either SlickShooter or one of RIO'S Powerflex core shooting lines for the best in performance - and one of RIO'S Powerflex core leaders to the front end for complete depth control. The rear loop is bar-coded for easy recognition.
The heads range in size from a 5/6 with a head of 33 ft. 340 grains to an 8/9 with a head of 39 ft. 520 grains.
Essentially This is RIO'S version of the popular Vision Ace line. For rods 13' and shorter in length use AFS with a standard tapered leader or with a PolyLeader 10' or shorter. For rods longer than 13' a polyLeader of 10' to 15' might be desirable.
