Fly Lines & Backing 

New technology takes our award winning fly lines to even higher levels 

Since the issues brought about by Covid, forced us to move our fly line production, in a way, it has been a blessing in disguise! This enforced move, also prompted us to completely review and rationalise the fly line range. The result is a smaller, concise range of lines, offering the right line for any situation. Incorporating the latest coating technology available, has resulted in a range of lines which are even smoother, slicker, longer lasting and memory free than we ever thought possible! 
If you thought our previous range of lines were good – wait until you try these!

Fly Line Endorsements
Sensational new advances in Nano Coating Technology (NCT) have enabled us to produce the smoothest, most supple and longest lasting fly lines ever, in over 30 years’ experience of making fly lines. Our “Nano-Coating”, introduced in 2015, took our lines onto a new level, but using even smaller nano sized particles, has resulted in an even smoother, silky surface finish, better than we ever thought possible. 
Whether fishing floating or sub-surface, this new generation of XS & XS-Plus lines, now has a finer, silky-finish and profile than ever before, helping them not only cast better, as they travel silently through the rod rings and cut cleaner through the air, but they are also more durable, increasing the life of your fly line. 
The results and general feedback so far, since manufacture restarted, have been outstanding and combined with our unique, bespoke material and crucially our design profiles, has enhanced even the best of any lines we have previously produced.

XS-Plus Fly Lines
XS Fly Lines 
Our traditional XS Ivory and Hi-Viz floating fly lines, have been our flagship products since their first development over 30 years ago and continue to be, with their unique profile and instantly recognisable livery. 
Added to this range for 2022 will be a small, concise range of Intermediate & Fast-Sink lines, to provide everything needed for a good day out on the water, searching the depths for those elusive fish! In addition there will be just one other single colour floating line in the XS range, which is the traditional Double Taper profile, in the same livery as the weight forward floating XS Ivory. 
XS Fly Lines
XS-Plus Fly Lines 
Moving up from the ever-popular XS range, our flagship XS-Plus range, will all be in two colour options, in a range of weight forward profiles, designed specifically for their specialist applications and will form the major group of Snowbee fly lines going forward. This will include all the specialist and distance casting fly lines. 
Again we have tidied the range and with the inclusion of the amazing Thistledown for example, has meant that others like the Delicate Presentation and Nymph lines have simply become redundant. 
The supreme casting Spectre Distance lines have also become such a favourite, that we have now merged the Countdown sinking and sink-tip lines into this Spectre range as well as adding another new line, the Buzzer 2, in the top-selling Buzzer series with a longer 10ft sinking tip. Sink-Tip fishing having become such a popular and diverse style of fishing today. 
XS-Plus Fly Lines
Classic Fly Lines 
The final group of Snowbee fly lines going forward are those in the Classic series. Each in a weight forward profile and single colour only, these lines characteristically have shorter heads than the XS and XS-Plus ranges and are aimed more specifically at the budget conscious or newcomer, just starting out in fly fishing.

XS-Plus Spectre Distance Fly Lines 

With the further developments in our Nano Coating technology, we have significantly improved all our fly lines but above all else we have also been able to pioneer a unique and hugely popular new profile, the XS-Plus Spectre Distance fly lines! This profile can produce effortless, longer casting for even the most moderate of casters, so we have extended the range still further from three to four lines in the series, including a brand new 10ft sink-tip model.

The XS-Plus Spectre Distance lines have proved nothing short of sensational, with the design taking into account the casting ability of most anglers. If you can cast at all, this line will help flatter your performance. If you can cast well, the Spectre Distance lines will help make your casting become exceptional. The new Spectre series have a profile that extends beyond the range of our traditional XS fly lines and at 30ft longer are 40 yards in total length, necessary to accommodate their outstanding performance. Each of the Spectre Distance lines has the same head length at 47ft. To achieve the benefit of longer casts however, the profiles have been ‘tweaked’ accordingly, to optimise all casting abilities. The front taper is 7ft in order to still achieve great turnover, especially at longer range and the longer rear taper of 8ft extends the profile over which a good cast can still be achieved, whether the optimum head length has been precisely aerialised, or not.

The rear taper on the Spectre lines start at a much extended 39ft, nearly 1/3rd longer than the standard XS. This provides a ‘load point’ much longer than normal, yet still very manageable. So, where room behind for a decent back-cast, this helps significantly when distance casting, without adding bulk to the fly line to achieve the same. Snowbee lines are renowned for being very slim and by extending the head length within manageable levels, this provides perfect rod flex when fully extended, without increasing wind resistance through bulk. With a longer head already extended, the cast automatically travels further. Snowbee’s slim running line also then comes into play and is why these lines are now 120ft long rather than the standard 90ft.

NEW for 2022 
The Spectre series now comprises of four lines with the addition of a new Sink-Tip version for this ever more popular style of fishing. It has 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 required, in all weathers.

All the lines have a Hi-Vis Chartreuse floating running line that will gradually pull sub-surface, with the weight of the sinking lines, providing the perfect direct link to the flies without slack, for best visibility and enhanced take detection.

XS-Plus Distance Fly Lines 

When it comes down to reaching fish that have pushed far out from the shore on a distant drop off, because of bright sun, weed, shallow water or just fishing pressure, the new Nano Technology of the XS-Plus fly lines could not be better suited to the distance profiles and construction of these two superb fly lines.

EDF XS-Plus Extreme Distance Floating 
This line has the longest head of any Snowbee fly line at 60 feet and 150ft (50yards) in total length. With the superb, silky finish of the Ivory coloured head, this line could easily be mistaken for an XS floating line, until the two-tone transition to the peach running line becomes exposed. Then, in the hands of a good exponent of the double haul, and a Prestige G-XS Graphene fly rod for example, the biggest give away of all is when the exceptional distance, that can be effortlessly achieved, becomes evident as the line disappears towards the horizon! This twin-colour fly line is truly exceptional and is another award winning fly line in the Snowbee XS-Plus range. Now with a #5wt version, this has proved to be one of the ultimate distance casting lines ever made…..

EXDF XS-Plus XS-tra Distance Floating 
This very supple line with a short, Hi-Viz Chartreuse head and Hi-Viz Orange running line will deliver a cast at range with very little back cast. Deliberately designed for use in tight spaces, or simply effortless distance casting even for a modest beginner, the line excels when teamed up with the correctly weighted fly rod and is the most commonly purchased fly line on the Snowbee ‘balanced outfit’ promotion. 
The XS-Plus XS-tra Distance line uses a shooting-head profile designed for extreme distance casting with minimal back-cast or false casting. This floating line, has a relatively short head of 40ft, with a short rear taper for powerful performance, onto a continuous, high visibility and fine diameter, floating running line. With the new Nano-coating, of all the XS-Plus fly lines, this provides the ultimate ‘shootability’ when casting and the high visibility helps enhance optimum ‘take’ and ‘strike’ detection. 
The overall length of the line is 120ft (40 yards), some 30ft longer than the standard XS and most other conventional fly line profiles, purposely extended to accommodate the range that can be attained. Early trials saw the loop to backing joint, rattling through the rod rings in no time. This line will help benefit those of all casting abilities to exceed the performance of traditional profile lines and help reach those fish that were previously just out of casting range, especially when faced with a limited casting space behind. As the name suggests…XS-tra Distance casting made easy!

XS-Plus Fly Lines 

All these lines are made to the same exacting profile as the XS fly lines but in instantly recognisable twin colours, where the density or profile changes. With an extended “bleed” between colour/density change, this also means that the sink-tips avoid inherent ‘hinging’ or ‘kick’, so often associated with some sink-tip fly lines, thus ensuring excellent presentation and turnover.

XS-Plus Buzzer Sink-Tip Fly Line New 2022 
Whether buzzer fishing, nymphing, retrieving small lures or sea trout fishing after dark, these two lines offer superb control for perfect casting and fly presentation, when wanting to fish in or just beneath the surface. They offer minimal stretch for ultimate feel, but enough to prevent bounce off that can result from non-stretch lines. They also help massively when buzzer fishing, to convert ‘taps’ and ‘takes’ to ‘fish-on!’, as the fish can hook themselves with a more direct contact to the fly and the low resistance created from being just beneath the surface, even before you may have felt them.

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 options it replaces.

WFHI XS-Plus ‘Hover’ Slow Intermediate New 2022 
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 combines all the benefits of the Neutral Density and Kelly Blue lines before it. The delightful memory free finish, low stretch and super sensitive core with floating running line, keeps you in perfect touch and feel in all conditions. There is barely a line made today to match it.

XS-Plus Thistledown² Fly Lines 

Our unique, super-fine profile range of lines, defy logic….how can ONE line weight, work on a range of rod weights? Believe us, when we say they do! Try them, for the best, ‘thistledown’ presentation you will ever have experienced! 
Understanding just how it works is another story, because when it states WF#2-5wt there really is only one single line that can and does function amazingly on all weight rods, whether they be a #2, #3, #4 or WF#5wt!! “How?” is the question everybody asks. Well it comes down to simple physics, as the new and refined components of this line combine to give the thinnest, most supple, weight forward profile possible, that correspondingly weighs very little and delivers incredible stealth and accuracy at the same time. The ultra-thin diameter, roughly half that of a conventional fly line, creates minimal drag when casting. That means the line speed can be maintained throughout the casting action and delivers the fly or flies, precisely where required, with the minimum effort possible. As its drag coefficient is so low, even in a strong cross-wind this line will cut through it, to deliver the fly exactly where intended. 
The amazing ‘Thistledown’, was primarily designed for the river and light fishing on small stillwaters but is now a regular companion on almost any application where an angler enjoys finesse, stealth and accuracy. Thistledown is two-tone in colour, Shamrock Olive head with a Buckskin running line and 90ft in total length. The short 34.5ft head, has a long, compound front taper and slender running line behind for effortless casting and extended presentation, to attain whatever range is necessary. The ultra-thin profile, combined with the super-smooth Nano coating, helps maintain line speed and if used for nymphing, also provides extreme sensitivity. Both ends are pre-looped, with micro welded loops, to maintain the line’s outstanding performance, so it is ready to go, straight from the box.

Utterly unique and still one of our fastest selling lines, as more and more anglers come to appreciate the advantages of using a Thistledown line, which soon resulted in the development of the stunningly successful WF#5-7wt option. 
Technology has also moved on, with the introduction of an even finer braided core allowing us to apply a thicker coating, whilst still maintaining the same overall diameter, providing an even higher floating line than the original models.

Following the phenomenal success of the original Thistledown line and then the WF#5/7 model, we are frequently asked for a lighter weight model, for small rivers and brooks. Our new model in a WF#1 to WF#4 weight, has a shorter, lighter profile than its big brothers, providing superb, delicate presentation with the lightest of rods and flies.

Salmon & Sea-Trout Fly lines 

A small, concise range of Salmon & Sea-Trout lines, designed for the traditional & progressive angler alike. 
New 2022 
SSF XS-Plus Short Spey Lines with Continuous Running Line (Floating)  
Our 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 line. 
The short head of these lines loads the rod really quickly for delivery at any range, saves time and shoots like a dream but with the same powerful turnover of a traditional Spey line. The fast front taper is especially suited to fishing with the Snowbee Poly-Coated Leaders, together providing the perfect presentation for whatever fly may be selected and at whatever depth may be required to seek ‘resting’ or ‘running’ fish.

TSF XS-Plus Traditional Spey Line (Floating) New 2022 
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 about any river environment and the line of choice on longer, traditional Spey casting rods.

XS-Plus Prestige Switch Fly Line 

SF XS-Plus Prestige Switch Fly 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 presentation. A long shallow front taper provides a smooth energy transfer for controlled, accurate presentation. Switch lines are ideally fished with a short Snowbee Poly-Coated Leader, helping fish different depths as conditions dictate. A short, steep rear taper compresses weight into the head, where it’s needed and connects smoothly to a fine diameter, continuous running line for minimum friction and maximum shootability. 
 
Switch lines are also ideally fished with a short Snowbee Poly-Coated Leader

RLS Shooting Head Running Line 
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.

XS-Plus Tropics Saltwater Fly Lines 

Premium XS-Plus Tropics saltwater fly lines covering all the options required by the progressive saltwater fly fisher. 
In the past, many fly line manufacturers have relied on a stiff monofilament core, to prevent their saltwater fly lines going ‘limp and sticky’ in tropical conditions. 
By careful manipulation of our ‘Nano Technology’ coating material however, we have now developed a harder coating for these particular lines, which means they still possess all the Nano-Tec benefits but are also able to withstand the rigours of the saltwater environment, especially in the searing heat of the tropics and on the deck of a skiff, awaiting the perfect cast. These properties allow these lines to be equally at home, targeting bass and pollack in our temperate waters.

TSWP-F Tropics Floating ‘Presentation' Line 
A 120ft floating line with a 41ft head and extended tapers front and back, designed to aid quick and accurate casting when targeting moving fish, with minimal delay and in whatever wind conditions may prevail. The front taper helps secure a good turnover across a wide range of flies, each with varying weight and sizes necessary for the species being pursued. This line is therefore ideal when ‘sight fishing’ for bonefish, permit or jacks etc. where a smooth and quiet ‘lay-down’ of the fly is so often required. The colour change at the back of the head, indicates the precise, optimum shoot point, which together with the fine running line, makes distance casting effortless when targeting fish at range.

TSWDC-FS Tropics 'Depth Charge' Line 
When you need to get down deep and fast with either short or long casts, our 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 and the 90ft of running line is easily drawn through the rings, extending the cast to a long range 120ft with minimum effort and needing only the short 30ft head out of the tip ring to be able to do so!

XS Fly Floating Fly Lines 

Designed by us over 30 years ago and still reputedly the best traditional fly line on the market today. 
The secret behind the legendary performance of the Snowbee XS Fly Lines has been the unique coating formula and profile, in conjunction with the classic low-stretch core, producing the most supple and memory free performance the line is renowned for.

Over the years there have been minor changes in production and our Nano-Technology is a winning formula across the range with its unmistakable profile and suppleness. In using this new technology, we have refined the original formula and manufacturing techniques to enhance the already superb, supple, memory-free performance so loved by fly fishers worldwide. For many years the Snowbee XS Ivory Floating has been our top selling line, and reputation has it as still the best-selling floating line in the UK. If you don’t already know why… just try one and you will soon find out!

WFI XS Intermediate New 2022 
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 accurately exploring all holding spots from the bank, without the need for a massive clear back-cast when space is tight. Great in the wind too in a neutral Aqua shade, to hunt beneath the surface and find fish cruising or holding lower down but not necessarily on the bottom.

WFFS XS Fast-Sink New 2022 
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 smooth and provides a great line for ‘fishing the hang’ or boobies, effortlessly controlled close along the bottom, or achieving quick depth in a big blow without a long and difficult cast!
