The Scientific Anglers Sonar 7 FT Leaders provide a simple and versatile way to turn a floating fly line into an effective sinking setup. The shorter 7-foot design offers excellent control while helping streamers and other subsurface flies reach the desired depth without requiring a complete sinking fly line.

Available in multiple sink rates, Sonar Leaders allow you to choose how quickly your fly moves through the water column. From the slow-sinking Hover at 1 IPS to the fast-sinking Sink 6 at 6 IPS, you can easily adjust your setup for shallow presentations, moderate depths, or deeper water.

Built for dependable performance and easy rigging, the 7 FT Sonar Leader is a convenient addition to a versatile fly-fishing setup. Simply choose the sink rate that matches the depth and presentation you need and attach the leader to your compatible fly line.
