The Scientific Anglers Stillwater Parabolic Sink Fly Line is a Sink 3/Sink 5/Sink 3 lake line that sinks in a U-shaped profile. The heavier middle sinks first, so the line sweeps through a large part of the water column. It suits the stillwater angler searching for the depth where fish are holding.
Searching the Water Column – The U-shaped sink profile moves flies through a range of depths on each retrieve. SA built it for searching large portions of the water column.
Nymphs and Streamers – SA lists nymph and streamer fishing for trout as this line’s use.
SA rates the Stillwater series for cold to moderate fresh water. It is a lake and pond line for trout.
The Stillwater Parabolic Sink is a weight-forward line with a 45′ head and a 100′ total length. SA overweights it by two line weights to carry multiple flies and long leaders and to make longer casts. The first 30′ of the 5-weight weighs 185gr, the weight of a standard 7-weight. It comes in 5 through 8 weight.
Parabolic Sink 3/Sink 5/Sink 3 – A Sink 5 section sits between two Sink 3 sections, which makes the U-shaped profile.
Seamless Density – The densities blend into each other with no abrupt step. This removes the hinge between sections and gives you a straight-line connection to the fly.
Textured Hang Markers – Textured markers sit 10′ and 20′ from the tip. You can feel them on the retrieve and hold the flies in the hang before you lift.
AST Plus – SA mixes its AST Plus slickness additive into the coating. The slicker surface shoots farther and holds up longer than a standard coating.
SA Line ID – The line is printed with “SA SD PRBLC WF X S# S# S#” (X is the line weight). You can tell spools apart at a glance.
Welded Loops – Welded loops make leader and backing connections quick.
