Presenting your fly at the depth where fish hold is a key factor in successful fishing, and Commando Tips are designed for swung fly presentations to steelhead and salmon. Not every run demands the fastest, heaviest tip; in riffles or shallower water, a controlled, shallower sink can be equally effective. In high water, a less aggressive sink helps keep the fly in the strike zone while maintaining a smooth, stable line feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin a single grain weight, Commando Tips offer three distinct sink rates: Riffle (shallow), Run (mid), and Bucket (deep). This enables you to tailor depth without altering your overall cast or load. For 80 grain tips, Riffle maps to S2, Run to S4, Bucket to S6. For 110 and 140 grain tips, Riffle maps to S3, Run to S6, Bucket to S9. If you know MOW tips, you’ll recognize three grain weights—80, 110, and 140 grains—designed for a wide range of rods from 2 weight switch outfits up to 9 weight two-handers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design isn’t just about depth. These tips are built for practical field use, with thoughtful features that simplify setup and rigging. The line ID appears on the rear of the tip (toward the head) while the head shows the corresponding ID on the front (toward the tip). Both ends of every head and tip include strong welded loops for quick, secure connections. The range includes 5, 7.5, 10, and 12 ft lengths; 10 ft and 12 ft options give you three grain weights to choose from, while 5 ft and 7.5 ft options keep a single grain weight but preserve the three sink rates within that weight. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse cases range from shallow riffles where a shallow sink helps keep the fly moving through the strike zone, to mid-depth runs that benefit from a balanced sink rate, up to deep water where Bucket taps into deeper holds. This versatility supports a broader depth repertoire without forcing you to change your casting style or line setup. And when you’re ready to switch, Commando Tips fit neatly into the OPST Sink Tip Wallet for fast field changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThree sink rates per length allow depth control without changing grain weight.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDepth options cover shallow to deep water with clear mappings for 80, 110, and 140 grains.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLine ID on the rear of tips and the front of heads speeds identification during rigging.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWelded loops on both ends provide strong, reliable connections for easy setup.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatibility spans a wide rod range, from lighter switch rods to larger two-handers, with wallet-friendly organization.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn short, Commando Tips offer flexible, field-ready depth options that support varied water conditions and presentation styles.
