These tips are designed for use with short Spey rods, typically under 13 feet. Ensure your rod is compatible with your Skagit head and tip weight.

How should I store my MOW tips?

Rinse with fresh water after use. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

How do I attach the tip to my Skagit head?

Use a loop-to-loop connection to attach the MOW tip to your Skagit head.

What kind of leader should I use with these tips?

Use a leader appropriate for the size of your fly and the species you are targeting. Leader length and tippet size may vary depending on conditions.
