Rio Gold
Fly Line
Manufacturer Description
The Ultimate Fly Line. A revolutionary
taper design allows tremendous loop stability at distance and a unique
weight distribution loads a rod at close range for easy casting. The
front taper delivers perfect turnover and presentation of flies between
sizes #22 and #2, making this the best general purpose, all round fly
line on the market.
The long back taper is excellent for mending and for roll and single
handed spey casting and the color change between the head and the
running line makes it easy to find the perfect load point for each cast.
The lines features RIO's new Extreme Slickness Technology
for an extraordinarily slick, dirt-repelling coating; in addition RIO's
AgentX and Super Floatation Technologies ensure the line tip and running
line remain floating high. As with all of RIO's premier trout lines a
small, neat welded loop in the front end makes it easy to change
leaders.
