If you’ve been struggling to find that perfect smaller river/single hand Skagit line, “scout” no further! Airflo’s Scout head is made out of polyurethane, which allows for a more delicate cast landing, which can be beneficial in more narrow/shallow rivers at typical fall flows. Here in the Great Lakes Region, steelhead rivers can be classified as a “creek” by many angler’s standards, but the fact is they hold fish. Traditional Skagit heads might be too long or too heavy carrying over from a wider tailwater to the tight quarters of a spring creek or freestone river. The Scout tracks nicely and is incredibly easy to control and steer, even through water with counter currents and boils. If you are looking for a new head to add to your wallet and Skagit head arsenal, the Scout is worth its grain weight in gold (or silver)!
