I believe the airflo 40 plus lines are 37.5 ft. heads,the grain weight comes from the longer than standard 30 ft heads.

The Airflo 40+ saltwater lines for single handers have a head length of 30 feet for the intermediate head and 29 feet for the sinking head.

It's really just an integrated shooting head. Folks might as well set up a real SH system to get more versatility. After all, it's much easier to swap a 30' head than change spools. It's also easier to carry a bunch of different densities in a leader wallet.

Best regards,
Roger

I find that changes other than flies when wade fishing are easier said than done, at least for me I rather just keep fishing. Part of the challenge is figuring out what I want to do the night before or the day before if night fishing.. If I am on a boat I bring multiple rods and reels for a quick change.
