Scientific Angler TC Textured Spey Tip
Scientific Angler’s TC Tips for spey line systems are the industry’s first truly tapered, fully textured, double-density sinking tips. SA created the Third Coast Textured Spey Tips because controlling the depth and speed of the fly is paramount when you’re swinging a fly for salmon or steelhead using a two-handed rod. Available in a multitude of densities to get the fly just where you need it.

FAQ
What makes the TC Textured Spey Tip different from other spey tips?
The TC Textured Spey Tip is the world’s first tapered, textured, multi-density sinking tip. The shooting texturing reduces friction and improves fly pickup, while the tapered design helps with turning over flies at any distance.
Are there different sink rates available?
Yes, the tips are color coded for different sink rates and come in three densities: 80 grain, 120 grain, and 160 grain, matching the length of the line.
What types of fishing are best suited for this tip?
This tip is designed for use with two-handed rods when swinging flies for salmon or steelhead, where precise depth and speed control are essential.

The TC Textured Spey Tip performs well in deep water conditions. The textured surface helps the fly stay in place and the tapered design makes it easy to adjust depth. I’ve used it on steelhead runs and it’s more reliable than previous tips I’ve tried.

I noticed smoother fly transitions when using this tip. The color coding helps me quickly identify the sink rate. It’s a bit heavier than standard tips, but the control is worth it for long casts.

After switching to the TC Tip, I found it easier to manage fly depth during slow swings. The reduced friction makes it simple to pick up the fly without tugging. Great for cold water salmon fishing.
