With a long, heavy head, it’s designed to handle multiple-fly rigs, long leaders and bigger flies while still providing the stability needed for longer casts.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull floating fly line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverweighted by two line weights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLong 45 ft head for longer casts and improved line control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandles multiple flies and long leaders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcellent for indicator nymphing\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAST Plus slickness additive for improved shooting and durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproved Dry Tip for better flotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWelded loops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSA Line ID\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100 ft total length\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrass \/ Willow \/ Buckskin colour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe key to the Stillwater Float is its 45 ft head combined with considerably more weight than a conventional floating line. Scientific Anglers has overweighted it by two line sizes, giving it the mass to turn over long leaders, teams of flies and heavier lake patterns without resorting to an overly short, aggressive taper. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat longer head also makes it a great choice when distance matters. It provides plenty of line to carry in the air before shooting, making it well suited to covering large expanses of water from the bank or boat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor indicator nymphing, the fully floating design keeps the line on the surface for easy mending and line control. The heavier taper also helps turn over an indicator, long leader and multiple nymphs—a combination that can be difficult to cast effectively with a standard trout taper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is this for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"qMYqUG_convSearchResultHighlightRoot\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"text-token-text-primary w-full focus:outline-none has-data-writing-block:pointer-events-none [\u0026amp;:has([data-writing-block])\u0026gt;*]:pointer-events-auto R6Vx5W_threadScrollVars scroll-mb-[calc(var(--scroll-root-safe-area-inset-bottom,0px)+var(--thread-response-height))] scroll-mt-[calc(var(--header-height)+min(200px,max(70px,20svh)))]\" dir=\"auto\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-base my-auto mx-auto pb-8 [--thread-content-margin:var(--thread-content-margin-xs,calc(var(--spacing)*4))] @w-sm\/main:[--thread-content-margin:var(--thread-content-margin-sm,calc(var(--spacing)*6))] @w-lg\/main:[--thread-content-margin:var(--thread-content-margin-lg,calc(var(--spacing)*16))] px-(--thread-content-margin)\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"[--thread-content-max-width:40rem] @w-lg\/main:[--thread-content-max-width:48rem] mx-auto max-w-(--thread-content-max-width) flex-1 group\/turn-messages focus-visible:outline-hidden relative flex w-full min-w-0 flex-col agent-turn\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"flex max-w-full flex-col gap-4 grow\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\" class=\"min-h-8 text-message relative flex w-full flex-col items-end gap-2 text-start break-words whitespace-normal outline-none keyboard-focused:focus-ring [.text-message+\u0026amp;]:mt-1\" tabindex=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"flex w-full flex-col gap-1 empty:hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"fbskMG_root markdown prose dark:prose-invert wrap-break-word w-full light markdown-new-styling\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\"\u003eStillwater trout anglers who need more from a floating line.
