Floating head with integrated 4 foot slow sinking tip to get flies in the top 12". Short head to load quick and blast flies amazing distances with one haul. Designed to sink when used with fluorocarbon leaders to suspend flies with great control, rather than depending entirely on the fly line to get depth. This means you can fish the top 6" with more precision.
Overhang marker to prevent you over extending your false casts. For stillwaters with limited back casting space, kayak / belly boat fishers, coastal rock fishing, river fishing with limited space and / or with single hand spey casts. Low diameter front taper means that, although this is a sink tip line, it doesn't land like a brick.

- Density - Floating head with a 4' tip which sinks at .5" inches per second - Designed to just cut the water's surface film and get flies in the top 12"
- Micro Exposed Core Welded Loops - Smallest and most supple loops in the world to eliminate ring rattle
- Overhang Marker - 6' bright colour section tells the user when they must release the cast before it collapses
- Colour - Whie running line, bright red overhang marker, olive tip
- Micro Thin - Thin running line, head & tip to cast huge distances and sink quick
- Cold Water Salt Proof - Hard coating that repels salt and maintains slickness
1. Sinking lines need to break the water's surface before they get to depth -
The Git Down lands, sinks and gets to depth immediately so they fish instantly. Some sinking lines waste half of the retrieve just getting to depth.
2. Sinking lines sink in an arc -
The Git Down is triple density. The thinner parts have heavier coatings to sink at the same speed as the thicker coatings. This means that overhang marker, belly and front taper sink at the same rate, despite being different diameters.
3. Sinking lines are hard to control when casting -
The Git Down maintains loop stability as the weight increases. Sunray Proprietary Technology
4. Users experience good casts and bad casts and don't know why -
The overhang marker fixes the number 1 fault in fly casting, extending too much line into false casts. Users think extending line into false casts will get them more distance. It doesn't, it collapses the line. The overhang mark tells the user when they must release the cast before it collapses. Sunray Proprietary Technology
5. Lines are not good in wind and they land heavy -
For 30 years companies have added weight to lines to load stiff rods and beat wind. That makes lines thick. Sunray were the first company to reduce diameter to slice through wind and make lines land lightly on water. Catch rates double. Sunray Proprietary Technology
The overhang marker is a coloured section unique to each line in each weight. We have cast each weight of line and marked where the optimal point is to release the cast, for each weight, in every range, one by one.
Common Questions
1. I can't make good casts every time. I can only make them now and again.
The overhang marker is a brightly coloured section between the head and running line that tells the caster when to release the forward cast. Many people slip line into their false casts, take too many false casts and then release. This means they have too much 'overhang' which is the amount of thin running line between the rod tip and the thicker belly of the line. The overhang marker prevents the caster slipping too much line into their false casts making perfect casts every single time.
2. Don't all lines have this?
No, most lines have a different coloured running line to the head. Or, some have a 'haul zone' which is a harder coating between the head and running line. Neither of these help in telling you when to release the forward cast. On every line, in every weight, the amount of overhang you can get away with is different. We have measured that section on each line in each weight and coloured the exact section. That is very different to a generic coating applied to all lines in all weights to prevent the line wearing out (haul zone.) And a different coloured running line only tells the user where the head starts, the user then has to figure out how much overhang they can get away with which is a very advanced skill, most professional casters have instinctively.
