Elite Predator Deep F/S3/S5/S7
The new Predator Deep F/S3/S5/S7 is the perfect line for delivering a big fly, sinking it into the strike zone, and keeping it there throughout the length of the retrieve. Unlike the rest of the Predator series which has a total sink tip length of 20ft, the entire head of the Predator Deep sinks and is split evenly between type 7, type 5 and type 3 densities. Those broad, deep runs that hold the biggest fish in the river have never been more accessible to the streamer angler.

This line performs exactly as described. It sinks deep and stays put in the river, which is perfect for targeting large fish in deeper sections. The even density distribution makes it reliable during long retrieves.
Joan Skinner –
I’ve used several Predator lines before, but this one stands out for its deep sink. It reaches the strike zone faster and holds position better than others in the series.

Great for deep water fishing. The sink is smooth and consistent. I noticed it stays in place even during long casts and retrieves, which helps when targeting big fish.
