Introducing our Spey Lite collection, and the Lite Skagit Intermediate shooting head. Designed for light double-handed duty and with a short, powerful taper, the Lite Skagit Intermediate is ideal for smaller streams and trout Spey applications when getting just below the surface is paramount. Available in grain weights from 150-420, this two-colored shooting head features a black marker at the end of the head that serves as a visible notification on where to begin your cast. Works perfectly with our SONAR Sinking Leaders and textured TC Tips. From dredging for steelhead to swinging streamers for trout, the Skagit Lite is Spey on a smaller scale.
