Snowbee XS Delicate Presentation Floating Fly Line. This line was originally designed for ‘Thistle Down’ presentation on rivers but if anybody thought that rivers were the limit with this line they would be mistaken. The Continuous Rear Taper (CRT) profile has surprised many when demonstrating and on still waters where dry fly casting, using the #5 to #7wt versions, has proved effortless.
The long standing flagship of the range, the original Prestige, no frills and without doubt still one, if not the best floating fly line available today. Its unique combination of ultra-low friction coating, superbly balanced profile and outstanding shootability, makes this a fly line which enhances the performance of the world’s best fly rods and brings out the best in casters of everywhere whatever their ability.
The new XS-Plus Extreme Distance has been the latest in award winning fly lines for Snowbee and now with a #5wt version, this is surely one of the ultimate distance casting lines ever made.

The best of Snowbee XS standard fly line design with a simple colour enhancement to assist every fly fisher in perfecting their technique.
Snowbee XS-Plus Hover Slow Intermediate Fly Line. The super slow, uniform sink rate of this line is designed to ‘hang’ just sub-surface hence the name. Some slow sinking lines simply sink too quickly and fall below invisible fish, feeding just beneath the surface. Sink-tip lines can be an option but this fishes slowly and evenly throughout its entire head length, offering exceptional control having first cut through the surface film. It then sinks very slowly with continuing immense control and
Snowbee XS-Plus Spectre Distance Sink Tip Fly Line. Features a sinking 10ft tip of similar 2-2.5ips density to the long full head intermediate. The Floating line will provide long and accurate casts when fishing dries, and the sink tip can further extend that now to enhance control when fishing buzzers, damsels and washing line for example. The Intermediate, with a level sink rate on the head of 2-2.5ips provides the ability to fish sub-surface, plus allows great control to more depth if require
Snowbee XS- Plus Buzzer Tip Fly Line. For optimum performance when fishing the ubiquitous and hugely rewarding style of buzzer fishing from the bank or boat. The last 3-4ft of the front taper section is coloured a neutral shade of olive where it has been designed to sink slowly and improve successful ‘hook ups’ and ‘feel’ when straight line nymphing and buzzer fishing.
Snowbee XS-Plus Buzzer 2 Fly Line. This is a brand new line and big brother to the original Buzzer line above. A sinktip line which exhibits superb casting performance, with a longer 10ft tip, which will hold longer sub-surface, giving straight line contact with the fly to avoid missed takes, whilst depth control is achieved through speed of retrieve. Ideal for serious trout, great in a bigger wave and fishing deeper than the original version and casts even better than the original Countdown opt
Snowbee XS-Plus Prestige Switch Switch Line - Floating. These modern day Switch lines are a little like a ‘compressed’ Spey line, with a short, heavy head (from 28-30ft) similar to a shooting head profile, but in the popular ‘Skagit’ style. Perfect for use when salmon fishing with the preferred lighter and shorter rods of today. The difference is the bulk of the weight is at the back of the head, providing power to create tight D-loops and truly effortless distance, coupled with great presentati
Snowbee XS-Plus Short Spey Floating Fly Line. The Short Spey line profiles have been designed to meet the demands of the modern salmon and sea-trout angler, fishing with a long or short double handed rod and for use in highly restricted areas, where the creation of a larger Spey loop is near impossible. By combining the best of the ‘Scandinavian underhand’ style of casting and ‘shooting head’ line technology, these lines have a perfectly smooth transition to the integral shooting head running li
Snowbee XS-Plus Traditional Floating Fly Line. On large open rivers there is normally plenty of room for Spey casting and the 62ft head of this line has proved the perfect length for the traditional Spey cast, whether casting your way down a tree-lined or steep sided river or open fields. Using a line with too short or too long a head and finding the optimum rod load point can be crucial so the colour change helps provide the perfect cast every time. Perfectly balanced for Spey casting in just a
Snowbee Snowbee XS-Plus Shooting Head Running Line - Salmon - 1mm x 40yd. To match any Shooting Heads, we have a slim and slick 1mm diameter, floating running line, in Hi-viz yellow of 40yds in length. This can be trimmed at reel end to fit any reel capacity and has a large pre-welded loop the other end, to allow the reel to be passed through, for quick and easy change of heads as and whenever necessary.
Snowbee XS Hi-Viz Floating Fly Line. The flagship of the range, the original ‘Prestige’ Fly Line. Without doubt one of the best floating fly lines available today. The unique combination of ultra-low friction coating, superbly balanced profile and outstanding shootability makes this fly line the line of choice to enhance the performance of the world’s best fly rods.
Snowbee XS Double Taper Fly Line. Incorporating all the superb properties of the original Snowbee XS Weight Forward Floating line, but in a Double Taper profile, for the traditional angler not yet converted to the Delicate Presentation where fly presentation is still everything. Great for delicate spider and dry fly fishing in particular.
Snowbee XS Intermediate Fly Line. Combining the original Kelly Blue and Clear Intermediate into one fly line has produced a fly line of effortless, slick casting ability, being exactly the same as the traditional XS floating in profile. Distance and presentation are therefore guaranteed, at a sink rate ideal to reliably search the water from the surface down, especially with lures, damsels and other mobile patterns. A hugely versatile line, great for loch style fishing from the boat or accuratel
Snowbee XS Fast Sink Fly Line. The very slim, hardly discernible weight forward profile of this uniform fast sinking line, enables excellent distance to be achieved easily when needing to get range and depth to present flies in the target zone. Low stretch core also enables excellent sensitivity but does not exhibit the issue of other fast sinking lines that can be non-stretch and have a tendency to ‘bounce’ fish off especially when fishing barbless. The slick, Nano-Tec coating is deceptively sm
Snowbee XS Plus Tropics Saltwater Floating 'Presentation' Fly Line. A floating line with a longer head and extended tapers, designed for smaller flies and precise presentation. The ideal line when ‘sight fishing’ for bonefish, permit, jacks etc., where a smooth and quiet ‘lay-down’ of the fly is essential. The colour change at the back of the head, notifies the precise shoot point, which together with the fine running line makes distance casting effortless.
Snowbee XS Plus Tropics Saltwater 'Depth Charge' Fly Line. When you need to get down deep and fast with either short or long casts, our new Tropics ‘Depth-Charge’ delivers on all counts. The short, shooting head profile and fine running line, will punch through a stiff wind effortlessly, whilst the 5-6 ips fast-sink head will get your fly down fast, to the ‘strike zone’. The colour change at the back of the head, notifies the precise 'shoot point' making distance casting effortless.
