Yancy Line
Multi-tip Fly line system.
For years, anglers have cut
and chopped their fly lines, trying to find a Fly line they
could cast their sinking heads without wearing their arms
out, by the end of the day. Double handed rods became the
rage. These spey rods were wonderful casting tools, but
we still missed the feel of fighting the steelhead on the
lighter single handed rod.
Yancy Salenjus, Mark Winningham
and Dennis Dickson all independently began playing with
this single handed rod, spey cast, concept. Yancy and Mark
came up with the forward belly design, Dennis improved it
with the flat mono running line, and progressive heads used
in the multi-tip system. This line is line a skagit line for a single handed rod. Dennis and Mike Dickson guide over
200 steelhead days a year, and they fish these lines exclusively.
The beauty of the system
is if you already have a multi-tip, you can keep your
sinking heads (as long as they are around 15 ft and 8-10 wt. heads) and just buy the Yancy line. Bottom Line,
these lines catch fish. You can either spey cast (use a modified version for a shorter rod), traditional
over hand, or Dickson's "modified spey". "Far
and easy" would describe it well.

You will need your own heads for these lines. 12 - 15 ft. preferred in a 9 - 11 wt. line. I like T11 sold below or Rio's 15 ft. heads sold in most fly shops. A sink type #3, #6 and #8 are used the most.

Floating
Line Head System
Finally, a floating line
head system that allows you to cast longer with fewer false cast Load and Shoot: The FLHS
allows you to load and shoot a longer cast in barely more
than a single back cast. How did we do it? We played with
lines that would load the rod quickly. This is a line for a 5-8 wt. rod. We over load the line 2 sizes and use a WF 30 ft. floating head and annealed
this floating line to a high tech flat mono, running line.
(This line is unlike anything on the market) Zero stretch
for hook setting, low memory and when it gets wet (unlike
most Fly line running lines which get sticky) this line gets
slick for long smooth casts.
How good is it? Though it
was designed for the Grande Ronde steelhead Dennis took
it to B.C. and rose some 39 steelhead in 9 days. These boys
averaged twelve pounds and he landed fish fish to nearly
twenty pounds on his single handed rod! All on the
FLHS. Try it you will be amazed.
