Description

DESCRIPTION The SALAR Convert Sink 5/6 is a true fast sinking body. In many situations this is as fast as a belly needs to be. It cuts through the water and takes any tip deep. In deep slower water a lighter tip on a 5/6 body can make a light fly hover nicely in cold water where depth and control are essential. It features a dark green back part with a brown front section. FEATURES – 8 multi-density options for precise depth control – Modern heavy back taper for stable front anchoring – Supple design for smooth performance and balanced energy transfer – Efficient, well-balanced power transformation – Designed to carry long and heavy tips with ease – Strong sleeve-reinforced loops – Easy-to-learn colour system for quick density identification – Loop line-weight colour coding – Clear identity markings – Smart, sustainable paper packaging with a clear display for easy line selection SPECIFICATIONS – Sink rate: Sink 5/6 – Colour: Dark Green/Brown – Weights/lengths: 4 DH #8/9 : 6.5 m (21’3 ft) – 30 g (463 gr) DH #9/10 : 7 m (23 ft) – 33 g (509 gr) DH #10/11 : 7.5 m (24’6 ft) – 36 g (556 gr) DH #11/12 : 7.5 m (24’6 ft) – 39 g (602 gr)
