Hi,  


Weight Forward  WF

The Most popular taper sold today and, as its name implies, the weight is concentrated in the front of the line with a thinner running line behind the thick weighted head section which is designed to shoot with ease.

Double Taper  DT

Although not as popular now a days, they still have some followers. Tapered at both ends with think middle section, long casting is diffcult.( ideal's for Dry fly or short distance sunface fishing, also it can turn it over to use)

Shooting Heads SH


A shooting head is a heavy front head section of the fly line, around 35ft long, which is attached to a thin stiff shooting or running line. Shooting heads are designed for extreme distance casting making them ideal for reservoir bank anglers who require extra distance. shooting heads are becoming increasingly popular for salmon fishing and when used in conjunction with a double-handed rods incredible distance can be achieved with the minimum amount of effort.

Hi snooker, very detail explanation. Thank you very much! Wish to fish with you soon.

As for shooting heads, I've just got two of them (floating and sinking). I'll write a beginner review on them once have a chance to try
