Trout LT Fly Line
!
The New Delicate Presentations Fly Line From Rio
This line has been designed with the most traditional of trout fishing techniques in mind. The LT stands for "Light Touch" meaning this is going to be the go to line for your most common dry fly presentations. The long, delicate front taper ensures the softest of presentations. This line is created with a supple braided multifilament core and features an extremely soft, memory free AgentX coating which makes these lines incredibly easy to lift off the water without causing disturbance to a rising fish. This is without a doubt the finest dry fly line Rio has ever manufactured.

A very popular line for Fast Action Fly Rods!

Designed a half size heavier to more easily load newer fast action graphite rods.  It also incorperates Rio's Super Flotation technology and Agent X which allows for the line to float higher and longer. The line comes with a welded loop manufactured into the line to provide easy access to changing leaders. 

Rio Indicator Fly Line
!

A new nymphing line for 2010 from Rio!

Whether you prefer to use an indicator, high stick or dead drift techniques this line will do it all.  Designed with a long back taper to help with mending and casting weighted nymphs or wind resistant indicators.  The high visibility orange tip with welded loop works as a built in indicator and allows for easy leader changes.  This line will greatly improve your ability to see strikes and react quickly allowing you to hook more fish.   We have not found that the high visibility tip spooks any fish when used in dry fly fishing.  

Coldwater Clouser Fly Line
!
A Great Floating Line For Streamer Fishing Or Windy Conditions
This is the floating line we use to battle the wind of Paradise Valley or casting heavy flies anywhere in freshwater. This line with it's unique compound taper and bullet front taper turns over heavy flies into the wind without effort and smoothly transfers energy to prevent the kick with heavily weighted flies. The Clouser line is made with AgentX and XS Technology. Color is Light Chartreuse.

Steelhead and Atlantic Salmon Fly Line
!
Versatile Steelhead And Atlantic Salmon Lines From Rio
This line is made specifically for the casting demands of steelhead and Atlantic Salmon fishing. The long belly and long back taper were developed for easy mends, roll casting, and single hand spey casting. A bullet front taper turns over those large flies so often used in this type of fly fishing. With AgentX Technology it's easy for an angler to lift line off the water. The Rios XS Technology really helps to shoot a long line when necessary. Color is Yellow.

Rio DC 10 ft. Sink Tip
!

A Sink Tip that gets you down just a foot or two, when you don't want to go deeper. 

These density compensated lines have a more heavily weighted forward portion, to get the fly down more quickly and keep your line straighter as you retrieve, making it easier to hook fish when they take your fly.    The DC 10 foot sink tip is good for smaller rivers & streams that require less distance on your cast and don't require you to get the fly down more than a few feet.  Built with a balanced length of thick floating belly to eliminate any hinge during the casting stroke that so often occurs when fishing sink tip lines. .

Rio DC 15 ft. Sink Tip
!
The best sink tip lines we've found!

These density compensated lines have a more heavily weighted forward portion, to get the fly down more quickly and keep your line straighter as you retrieve, making it easier to hook fish when they take your fly.  The DC 15 ft sink tip is the perfect line for getting your nymph or streamer down on most big western rivers like the Madison or Yellowstone.  These lines are built  with a balanced length of thick floating belly to eliminate any hinge during the casting stroke that so often occurs when fishing sink tip lines. 

We stock these in several sink rates.  The type 4 sinks quite rapidly but if you need it to go down really fast pick the type 6. 

 

Rio DC 24ft Sink Tip
!
The Best Sinking Tip line when you need to go deep in big fast running rivers. 

An absolute favorite of streamer fishermen and steelhead anglers.  This is wonderful casting fast sinking head line. These density compensated lines have a more heavily weighted forward portion, to get the fly down more quickly and keep your line straighter as you retrieve, making it easier to hook fish when they take your fly.  Rio's DC lines have also proven to be some of the most durable fly lines we've found.   If you have a #7/8 rod, get the 200 gr.  For a #9 get the 250 gr., and if you are using a #10 pick the 300 gr.      

This is a cold water line.  For saltwater use pick the DeepSea Version. 

Deep 4
!
An Essential Series Of Fly Lines For Lake Anglers
This series of sinking lines feature an increase in density at the front to insure the line tip sinks first (desity compensation). These are made on a supple core for memory free performance and have a super smooth coating to make distance casting easier. Color is Black.

Bonefish Line
!
Dual Tone Color Now Make's It Easy To Know When To Shoot Line
Rio's bonefish fly line features a unique taper allowing ease at both long and close range encounters. The hard saltwater coating over a medium stiff core makes for a fly line that wont wilt in hot tropical conditions. This line also features Rio's AgentX undercoat that produces a line that floats higher than other lines, is easier to pick up off the water, and a floating running line that wont sink while wading. The contrasting color of the running line on these is a really big help. Now it's easy to find the rods perfect loading point.

Lets you cast farther than you've ever dreamed!

This new saltwater line from RIO allows anglers to cast unbelievable distances yet turns over forcefully with the Clouser style head that puts more weight up front.   Like the coldwater version, the head on this line is 37.5 feet long making it heavier than a standard line.   This line has a small diameter, solid monofilament "powerflex" core with a hard saltwater tropical coating.   This line is longer than a standard line, at 120 feet, but you'll need that much running line when you see how long you can launch it!  This line will really impress your friends!   Welded loops on both ends for easy rigging.  Color: Sky Blue with Tan running line.    A wonderful bonefish line when you need to get that 10-20 extra feet.  Not as good as more standard lines in very windy conditions. 

Tropical Clouser Saltwater Line

Rio's Best All Around Saltwater Line

If you were to use just one saltwater line this should be it. This line is based on the same taper as the Coldwater Clouser line and is designed to turn over heavy flies into a stiff wind. Made with Rio's XS Technology, you can really shoot this line a long ways.

Big Game Fly Line
!
The best saltwater line to use to get DEEP!
This super-fast sinking fly line has a smooth stiffer tropical coating over a very strong Powerflex monofilament core.   This line is similar to the DC 24 foot line but is stiffer for tropical use and has a slightly longer 26 foot Density Compensated head.   This is the perfect line for tarpon when you need to get down into those deep channels and also for sailfish and marlin and tuna, when you need to go deep.
