FAQs

What is the difference between the Medium, Heavy, and Extra Heavy tips?

The tips differ in their sink rates (ips - inches per second), allowing you to fish at different depths. Choose the tip based on your Skagit head weight and the current fishing conditions.

Can I use these tips with any Spey rod?

These tips are designed for use with Spey rods under 13ft. Ensure your rod is rated to handle the Skagit head grain weight you are using.

How do I choose the correct tip for my Skagit head?

Match the tip weight to your Skagit head's grain weight. Refer to the product information or packaging for recommended pairings.

How should I store my MOW tips?

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

What is the loop-to-loop connection?

The loop-to-loop connection is a simple way to connect the MOW tip to your Skagit head. Both the tip and the Skagit head will have a pre-made loop that can be easily connected.

How do I clean the tips?

Rinse the tips with fresh water after each use to remove any salt, dirt, or debris.

Troubleshooting

Tip not sinking properly.

Ensure you are using the correct tip weight for your Skagit head and the fishing conditions. Check for any damage or debris on the tip.

Casting issues with tangles.

Check your casting technique. Make sure you have enough room for a full casting stroke. Check for any obstructions in your line system.

Tip is wearing out quickly.

Avoid dragging the tip along the bottom. Rinse the tip after each use.
