RIO Skagit MOW Tips
RIO
The RIO Skagit MOW Tips allow anglers to cover every likely fishing situation and achieve the perfect depth when swinging the fly. Designed specifically for use with Skagit heads on your Spey setup, These Skagit MOW tips can be interchanged throughout the day to get your fly to the desired depth for each pool you fish on the river. This new version features RIO's new SlickCast coating for extra durability and super slick casting performance.
There are six unique tips that make up the RIO Skagit MOW series. Each is designed to get your fly to a different level in the water. If you aren't sure which tips are best for you, start with the "5ft Floating w/ 5ft Sinking" and the "10ft Sinking". You will have need for each and every one of them, but these two are probably the best to start with for most steelhead rivers. Or, you can buy all of the MOW tips in our Skagit MOW Tip Kit.
