Airflo FLO Tip – 10′ T-10 – New
Jeff Smith The Airflo FLO Tip – 10′ T-10 is a high-performance fly fishing line designed for versatility and precision. Here’s what you need to know:
Key Features:
– Length: 10 feet (part of Airflo’s “FLO Tip” interchangeable system).
– Weight: T-10 (10 grains per foot, totaling ~100 grains for the 10′ tip).
– Technology: Uses Airflo’s FLO coating (durable, slick, and hydrophobic for better floatation and casting).
– Compatibility: Works with Airflo’s Switch/Spey lines or as a standalone tip for Scandi or Skagit setups.
– Material: Polyurethane core (no PVC) for better longevity and reduced memory.
Best Uses:
– Spey/Switch Casting: Ideal for two-handed rods, especially with sinking tips for varied water conditions.
– Versatility: The T-10 sink rate (Type 10) is great for deep, fast currents or when you need to get flies down quickly.
– Trout/Salmon/Steelhead: A solid choice for larger species in rivers.
Why Choose Airflo?
– No PVC: More eco-friendly and durable than traditional lines.
– Interchangeable Tips: Easily swap tips without changing the entire line.
– Smooth Casting: The FLO coating reduces friction for longer, cleaner casts.
Considerations:
– Ensure your rod’s grain window matches the 100-grain total weight (e.g., for a 6-8wt Spey rod).
– Pair with a Skagit head if using for heavy flies/sink tips.
If you’re looking for a fast-sinking, durable tip for big water, the Airflo FLO Tip T-10 is a great option. Let me know if you need help with setup or alternatives!
