The young Scandinavian label NAM has conquered the hearts of many passionate Trout, Sea Trout and Salmon anglers in a very short time with its high-quality single-handed and double-handed rods. For good reason! Because the expertise of the minds behind the products of NAM is tremendous. You notice immediately that fishability and technology go hand in hand here.
After the resounding success of the first and second generation of NAM fly rods, it was only a matter of time before matching lines and shooting heads joined the NAM family. And here they are at last!
All NAM shooting heads are manufactured in the USA at Rio. No secret is made of this. On the contrary! The NAM team has deliberately chosen the American manufacturer of premium lines and draws on years of experience with successful shooting heads for Salmon, Sea Trout and Steelhead.
NAM's double-handed shooting heads originate from the Scandinavian passion for fishing for Baltic and Atlantic Salmon and have been developed on the basis of countless tests on the rivers of Norway and Sweden. The taper of these shooting heads is tuned to the Scandi casting style, which allows for a very clean presentation and precise casts over all distances. The smooth yet very strong taper of this shooting head ensures an optimal turn-over of leader and fly - even with heavily weighted tube flies! The weights of the NAM two-handed shooting heads are perfectly matched to the respective fishing scenarios and rod classes. By the way, A-Type stands for 'Allround' with these heads (as with the fly lines of the same name for single-handed rods). And that sums it up in short perfectly. Because with these shooting heads you can master almost any situation on the river!
To make this possible, the NAM A-Type double-handed shooting heads are available in different sink rates. This gives you full control and allows you to systematically fish all water layers. Each line is equipped with the extremely low-stretch ConnectCore known from Rio. A core that ensures perfect power transmission during casting, effective hook-ups and direct contact with the fly! The tough coating with Rio's Extreme Slickness Technology is very smooth and offers superior casting performance and impressive durability.
