Scientific Anglers Amplitude Tropical Titan Saltwater Fly Line
The Amplitude Tropical Titan is an exceptional saltwater fly line whose investment is really justified. Its behavior when placed in a shooting basket or drifting behind you when wading and casting while moving is simply out of the ordinary. The quality of the coating and its resistance to abrasion are remarkable. The taper profile makes fishing easy at short, medium and long distances. A real joy to use for true reliability in the roughest conditions.

The Amplitude Series of fly lines features the revolutionary AST Plus slickness additive for the ultimate in slickness and durability. Each line is built with three textures for a reduction in friction, three colors to identify the separate parts of the line, and welded loops for quick and easy rigging. SA Amplitude lines are the culmination of decades of research, testing, and innovation; no finer fly line exists in the world. Amplitude is available in a number of different freshwater- and saltwater-specific tapers, so now you can reach every fish you’re after.
Features • Features the revolutionary AST Plus slickness additive for superior shooting ability and increased durability • Floating Texture on the tip section for the ultimate in flotation • Shooting Texture running line delivers longer casts, thanks to a reduction in friction • High-contrast sighter to identify the back of the line when fighting fish; camo tip for stealth • Powerful head loads quickly and delivers large flies to distant targets; ideal for tarpon, permit, snook, and redfish; useful for GTs, bonefish, and sea trout • Built two line sizes heavy; use designated line weight for your rod • Tropi-Core technology remains stiff and slick in tropical environments • SA AMP TROP TITAN WF X F (X = line weight)
Care Cleaning with soap and water on a cloth removes most of the dirt, but cleaning pads work even better. Properly cleaned, your lines will cast better and last longer, certainly a good trade-off for a couple of minutes of line maintenance. To use the cleaning pad, pinch the pad over the line so that the abrasive, non-foam side touches the line. Pull the fly line through the pad under some tension. Repeat this process until some of the fly line color is visible on the pad. Clean your lines every 2-3 outings, or anytime you think dirt is hindering their performance. The cleaning pads are easy to carry in your vest or tackle bag and can be used anytime, wet or dry. Note that SA Fly Line Dressing can be used to reduce friction during competition- or practice casting scenarios, but we don’t recommend it for fishing.

The first series of lines to feature the revolutionary AST PLUS slickness additive, the Amplitude Amplitude Big Water Taper will shoot farther and last longer than any other line on the market.It’s slickness down to a science. Every now and then, we come up with something in our lab that has the potential to change fly fishing forever. The Amplitude Big...
The Magnetic Minnow Chartreuse is perfect for targeting larger fish, whether that be Stripers, Snook, Red's and even Tarpon.A subtle amount of flash added for when you want it.Tied on a Gamakatsu SL12s #2/0 & 6/0.I tested this fly in the Bijagos archipelago and it is one of the most effective pattern (along with the two other color versions) to...

Not your average popper.Designed by Fulling Mill consultant James Christmas who has been a guide on Alphonse Island in the Seychelles.The NYAP Black is a must have in your fly box.This simple foam pattern has accounted for some whopping GT's and Jack Crevalle, the world over. Made by affixing some basic foam onto a World Class hook, in this case it's the...
The ECoastal Sondergaard casting basket is particularly well designed.It can be repositioned and removed in seconds thanks to an ingenious velcro system, and allows water to drain out of it when wading deep, which is not the case with most of its competitors.A must for all distance wading fishing.The "spikes" are removable so you can easily put it in a...
The Fulling Mill Slinky Clouser is one of the most efficient models I have had the opportunity to test and use while guiding and fishing with friends for several years.It is a real bass magnet and I can testify to its efficiency as it has caught hundreds of bass of all sizes (and a few sea breams), especially in sizes #06 and #02.It is also a top pattern...

The Salty Baitfish Anchovy is a streamer originally designed for freshwater predators but it has proved to be a real magnet for marine fish, primarily European sea bass.Sea bass from the Bay of Morlaix and the Roadstead of Brest have found the smaller models (sizes #02 and #1/0) of this very realistic anchovy imitation particularly to their liking.It is...
The Lamson Litespeed M Ultramarine version is the Formula 1 reel for saltwater fly fishing: very light for fatigue-free casting, ultra powerful brake totally waterproof and progressive, ultra large arbor for a quick retrieve.A real joy, as much for its performance in fishing action (the Bijagos jacks remember it) as from an aesthetic point of view.
