Being the first company to develop non stretch lines two decades ago, its fair to say that while the concept was always the 'Holy Grail', early product had its teething problems.
The benefits of ultra low stretch lines are clear ' smoother casting performance, positive hook sets, improved lift off and mending control ' reasons enough not to give up on this radical concept.
Using our new Power Core braid, Sixth Sense flylines combine TDC technology with our old favourite 'Delta Taper' to create a range of zero memory lines, that cast and fish like a dream.
Give a new feel to your fly fishing with Airflo Sixth Sense.
Power Core technology
Extreme low stretch ' only 6% compared to 20% on normal lines
Don't you want a line that allows you to feel what is going on' Feel the kick and jive of a fly as it seeks out your quarry through the crucial depths' Of course you do.
The Sixth Sense subsurface lines give a completely structured range of non overlapping sink rates thanks to Airflo's Standardised Sink Rate (SSR to you) system.
In addition to our range of density compensated, tip first sinkers, we also offer a limited range of 'Sweep' sinking lines that make your flies dive and then rise through the water column in a deadly curve ' fish love the curve.

Based on the same technology as the incredible Sixth Sense flylines, Airflo have created a small range of flylines that sink in a U shape profile.
With the recent popularity of the 'washing line' technique, we realised that creating a U shape retrieve path actually allows the fly to fish through a range of depths effectively, during a single cast.
Sweep lines follow this U sink path by increasing the sink speed of the belly section of the flyline to be faster than the tip and running line.
The use of power core, reduces tangles significantly and helps sets the hooks despite the belly in the line - something that was always a problem with the old Hi-D type lines.
Sweep is not the line for early season when fish are hugging the bottom, but as a searching line when the fish are moving up and down throughout the water column, it is an extremely effective line.
When boat fishing, this line creates a far sharper angle on the final lift and this almost vertical action is extremely deadly for strip and hang techniques.
Available in Di5 and and Di7 belly sink rates - the tip of the Di5 sinks at 3.5" per sec and the Belly sinks at 5" per sec - on the Di7 version the tip sinks at 5" per sec and the belly sinks at 7" per second.
All lines are 35yds long - you'll need it!!
