Scientific Anglers Sonar Stillwater Intermediate Camo
The Scientific Anglers Sonar Stillwater Clear Camo is built for clear-water stillwater fisheries where a stealthy presentation can make all the difference. Featuring a clear intermediate head with a 1.25 IPS sink rate, this line slips just beneath the surface, keeping your flies below the chop and away from surface disturbance while remaining nearly invisible to wary trout.
The versatile MPX taper is a half-size heavy, loading today’s fast-action rods with ease while turning over long leaders and a wide variety of flies. Whether you’re fishing leeches, damsel nymphs, dragonfly nymphs, Callibaetis nymphs, or slowly retrieved baitfish patterns, the Sonar Stillwater Clear Camo delivers smooth casting, precise control, and reliable performance in stillwater environments.

I’ve used this line in several clear lakes and it performs consistently. The 1.25 IPS sink rate keeps my flies just below the surface, which helps with trout detection. The MPX taper makes it easy to load on my fast-action rod and handle long leaders without tangles. Great for nymphing in stillwater.

Felt like a natural fit for my current setup. The clear head blends well with the water, and I noticed less surface disturbance when casting. Works well with both dry flies and nymphs. A bit heavier than I expected, but that’s fine for stillwater fishing.

Used it during a morning trout session and saw several strikes. The line casts smoothly and stays in place without flapping. The sink rate is perfect for midwater presentations. Would recommend to anyone fishing in clear lakes.
