Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Switch Line

Yes. My set up goes like this:

Backing> Running Line (in my case, the belly of my switch line)> Skagit Head> Tip (floating or sinking)> Leader

For streamers, just a 4' length of regular mono seems to work fine for a leader. With nymphs and wet flies, I usually use some sort of tied tapered leader. 

For OH casting, I take off the Skagit and tip sections and replace it with the head from the switch line.

Give Dan a call at Orvis and he'll get you all set up.

Hi everyone,

I am trying to understand how the lines system set up on switch rod. It sounds like that you are using shoot head. If it is, then I will need to buy tips (float and sink - average 15' )? then the final - lead/tippet 7'-9'? Is it correct?
