Heavy Deep Shad Dart

Deep current option
ShadDeep

The dedicated depth tool: a heavier cone to reach fish that will not rise to a lighter swung fly. Fast current, cold water or high conditions that push fish low.

Fish this when

Fast current, deep migration lanes, fish holding at depth. Cold or high water. When lighter flies are swinging too high in the column.

Why it works

Extra weight defeats the current and gets the fly to the fish. The same trigger logic, delivered at the right depth.
