Components

AIRFLO SNIPER FLY ROD

Saltwater and freshwater predator fishing places great demands on your kit… rods especially. Extreme environments, large fish with anger issues and big flies mean you have to have rods you can take to the absolute limit. The all new Airflo Sniper fly rod series have been designed and tested to live up to these expectations.

Our powerful smooth taper harnesses the rod’s power deep into the blank, whilst not being overly stiff. These rods need to bend to combat big explosive fish but more importantly load the fly line quickly for those all important one shot casts for that trophy fish of a lifetime.

9# always in stock – please contact us if you would like to order an 8, 10 or 12#

All our Sniper rods are 8ft 6in and 4 sections so you can travel with them anywhere.

Airflo V3 Fly Reel

The Airflo V3 Fly Reel is our finest offering yet. It has a super smooth, sealed and saltwater resistant drag. The drag functions impeccably with low start-up inertia for lighter tippets and delicate fishing applications. Crank down on the textured drag knob of the larger reels for all the stopping power you will ever need.

For 2021 Aiflo increased the porting to further reduce weight creating the lightest Airflo reel yet.

The 3rd generation V-Lite reel comes from a quality bloodline and needs no introduction. The previous V2 reels sold in huge numbers. They are tried and tested all over the world. From UK Stillwater and river fishing to the harshest cold and tropical saltwater environments.

Its stunning looks are finished in a deep, charcoal smoke, with satin olive accents. This completes what is, without a doubt, a visually striking collaboration. If you are one of many who own a V2 reel, you will be happy that the spools are interchangeable. So buying the new V3 will compliment your existing collection.

Airflo 40+ Sniper Line

To help people catch more fish, Airflo developed a new aggressive short head Sniper line. The Sniper is based on a shorter version of the 40+ line, with an easy casting condensed head and a thick tip diameter. The Sniper has a Dual Head Design allows the line to perform well for lesser casters and advanced casters.

Lesser casters can cast the line with only the front 15ft of line out the rod tip, while experts will aerialize the entire head to achieve maximum distance. Available in floating, intermediate sink, type 3, and type 7 sink.

If your quarry has teeth and a big mouth then you need to invest in this series of fly lines. Predator fishing is an enormously thriving and growing market, and Airflo’s Sniper fly lines have a cult following within the dedicated predator angling community, be it cold saltwater or freshwater angler. These lines are built for the sole purpose of throwing big flies a long way.

This is the GO-TO Pike and Bass fly line for Irish and European anglers, river or lake.

Based on a punchier more compact version of our award-winning 40+ fly lines. The Sniper 4 Seasons will consistently turn over bulky mouthfuls at range with ease. A serious fly line for badass fish.

AIRFLO MICRO POLY BACKING

Fill up your reel with the Airflo Micro Poly Backing. AMPB is the most popular backing material on the market, coated to ensure it’s longevity.

Fly line backing serves two basic purposes. The first is to fill up your reel so that your fly line completes the filling of your reel to within, say, 1/8th inch of the spool capacity. The second is to still stay connected when a big fish strips of all your fly line!
