About Us.
We don’t judge our shop by the products we carry. And we definitely don’t judge it by size. Our shop staff and guides are what makes us, along with the community of anglers that make Headhunters their base.
A TACTICAL FLY LINE.
The Headhunter 2 Tactical dry fly line was designed completely in-house by our crack team of dry fly snobs. We were looking for a line that would conquer the conditions we face every day on the Missouri River. Long distance presentations are common, as is the need for super-tight accuracy. The strong, ever-present front-range wind needs to be dealt with power, but that cast still needs to land like a feather. And after the fly lands, you need to make strong mends and feed line into the drift. And you’re commonly making these difficult reach cast presentations while sitting in a boat. What we came up with is a unique taper that excels at downstream presentations in all big “spring creek” scenarios. After we were satisfied with the taper, we added some visual markers to let the angler know where the line performs best. We continue to make improvements, and it continues to draw rave reviews from anglers. VIDEO>>
