Some tapers earn loyal followings for a reason. The Airflo Superflo Max Skagit Float brings back Airflo’s original Skagit taper design—updated with modern materials and enhanced performance for anglers who appreciate proven, dependable casting characteristics.
Built with Airflo’s ultra-supple Superflo Max coating, this floating Skagit head transfers energy more efficiently, reducing stiffness and maximizing casting power regardless of temperature. Instead of losing energy during flex and turnover, the line loads smoothly and delivers powerful, controlled casts with less effort.
Designed for heavy flies, sink tips, and challenging river conditions, the Skagit Float excels when casting large profiles, swinging deep water, or fishing confined spaces where compact casting efficiency matters. Its floating design pairs seamlessly with interchangeable sink tips, making it an ideal choice for steelhead, salmon, and modern two-handed fishing systems.
For longtime Skagit anglers, it’s the return of an old favorite. For new anglers, it’s a proven taper trusted by generations of swing fishermen.
