The Spectre series of fly lines have a profile that extends beyond the range of Snowbee\'s traditional XS fly lines and at 30\' longer are 40 yards in total length necessary to accommodate their outstanding performance. Each of the Spectre Distance lines has the same head length at 47\'. To achieve the benefit of longer casts however the profiles have been tweaked accordingly to optimise all casting abilities. The front taper is 7\' in order to still achieve great turnover especially at longer range and the longer rear taper of 8\' extends the profile over which a good cast can still be achieved whether the optimum head length has been precisely aerialised or not.
The rear taper on the Spectre lines start at a much extended 39\' nearly 1/3rd longer than the standard XS. This provides a load point much longer than normal yet still very manageable. So where room behind for a decent back-cast this helps significantly when distance casting without adding bulk to the fly line to achieve the same. Snowbee lines are renowned for being very slim and byb extending the head length within manageable levels this provides perfect rod flex when fully extended without increasing wind resistance through bulk. With a longer head already extended the cast automatically travels further. Snowbee\'s slim running line also then comes into play and is why these lines are now 120\' long rather than the standard 90\'.
Let customers speak for us
Great company, fast email communication, and very quick delivery.
I was looking for a new wetsuit and found these guys online. They had the wetsuit I was after and there was a link to an interactive sizing guide to help me identify the right size. After ordering I received an email checking I had used the chart to make sure I was aware and avoid getting the wrong one. Wetsuit arrived a few days later. Cannot ask for more.
Small order, but never the less a very positive experience. My replacement fins straps were not delivered (Christmas time order) when I chased this with Russell, his email reply was instant and positive. A new order was dispatched and received a few days later. Highly recommended
Excellent, speedy response to questions through the 'chat' option. Easy to search for, and purchase, products. Great delivery experience. Overall, highly recommend.

Having returned from a dive trip in the Maldives I was after this book. I couldn't find it anywhere as I thought it was out of print. I saw a copy on your site with a 'ask first' note, which I did. You responded really quickly that it would be in stock the following week, so I ordered the book and it arrived the next week. So, honest, open, quick customer service and you managed to source what I was after when nobody else could. Awesome, thanks.
I bought a couple of items from this company which were pretty niche and in the end I ordered the wrong version (my bad) especially as they had to get it from the uk distributor. That said it wasn’t a problem, we’re super communicators and nothing was too much trouble. Would recommend 👍
I bought a wetsuit from these guys. They were great. Checked to see if I was sure about the sizing and directed me to their useful size calculator. Will definitely be a returning customer.
