Sink Tips
Sink tips allow Spey, switch, and single‑hand anglers to fine‑tune depth, speed, and presentation without changing their entire fly line. Whether you’re pairing tips with Skagit heads, replacing components in a VersiTip system, or customizing your setup with MOW, iMOW, Classic, or MDC sink tips, this collection brings together proven options designed for precise control in changing river conditions. Sink tips help anglers reach fish at varying depths and adapt quickly to different water types, flows, and seasonal conditions.

Choosing the Right Sink Tip
Sink tips allow anglers to adjust depth and presentation quickly, making them essential for steelhead, salmon, and trout Spey setups. Whether you prefer traditional 15-foot tips, modular MOW systems, or custom-cut T-material, each style offers unique advantages for controlling fly speed and maintaining a consistent swing.
Traditional Sink Tips
Traditional sink tips provide consistent depth and smooth turnover for a wide range of Spey and switch rod applications. Options like the RIO Classic 15ft Sink Tips offer reliable performance for anglers who prefer longer, uniform tips. RIO’s MDC 12ft Sink Tips also provide excellent control for anglers who want a slightly shorter sinking option.
MOW & iMOW Sink Tip Systems
MOW and iMOW tips allow anglers to fine-tune sink rates and tip lengths with modular combinations of floating, intermediate, and sinking sections. These systems excel in varied river conditions where precise depth control is essential. Popular options include RIO Skagit MOW Tips, RIO Skagit iMOW Sink Tips, and the RIO Skagit MOW Spey Tip Kits, which provide a full range of interchangeable tips for different water types.
T-Material for Custom Sink Tips
T-material allows anglers to build custom sink tips tailored to their exact depth and presentation needs. These materials are ideal for winter steelhead, Chinook salmon, and deep-water Spey applications. Options include RIO InTouch T-8, RIO InTouch T-11, RIO InTouch T-14, and RIO InTouch T-17, each offering different sink rates and applications for building custom tips.
Custom-Length Sink Tips
For anglers who want complete control over tip length and sink rate, our Scientific Anglers Custom Length Sink Tips offer a fully personalized solution. Customers can order any length of T-material they prefer, and we build clean, heat-welded loops on each end. Longer custom tips can also serve as fast-sinking shooting heads for single-hand rods, making them a versatile option for deep presentations and unique fisheries.
