Scientific Anglers Integrated Switch Fly Line
The Integrated Switch was created out of the need for a fully integrated switch line for long casts into the wind and waves of Nevada’s Pyramid Lake. It’s design incorporates shooting head, running line, and floating tip into a single integrated line system.
Designed for modern 10.5-11.5′ switch rods, this floating indicator rig line carries and turns over large indicator rigs with multiple flies.
Features a larger diameter running line for easier handling in cold conditions.
Includes a high contrast sighter at the rear of the head to identify the perfect overhang.
Braided multifilament core ensures reliable performance in moderate and cold climates.
Grain weight is specified for the first 30 feet.

This line performs well in windy conditions at Pyramid Lake. The high contrast sighter helps me find the perfect overhang quickly. The larger diameter running line makes it easier to cast with cold hands. I’ve used it with multiple flies on my 11-foot switch rod and it handles the rig smoothly.

Great for long casts in open water. The integrated design reduces tangles and the sighter is very helpful. A bit stiffer than other lines, but that’s expected for the cold climate core. Works well with heavy indicator rigs.

I’ve been using this line for several weeks now and it’s proven reliable in both wind and choppy conditions. The braided core holds up well in cold weather. The floating tip and shooting head work together seamlessly for accurate casts.
