The Skagit Timberline Shooting Head is designed by renowned Olympic Peninsula guide, Gray Struznik. T. It is no secret that heavy flies with heavy sink tips catch the most Winter Steelhead. Make your life easier with a compact Skagit head like the Skagit Timberline. At 18 feet, this Skagit head is powerful and loads rods quickly. It allows for easier turnover of heavy flies and easier casts with limited casting room. The line suits rods in the 11 to 13 foot range. It is ideal for switch rods in all scenarios and shorter full Spey rods when a caster wants more power or has limited casting room. The Skagit Timberline is heavily rear loaded and progressively tapered which allows it to handle the heaviest of flies and T-tips. We fish this Skagit head all over the Coast, small interior rivers or when we will be tight to the bank on larger rivers.
