RIO’S BIG NASTY LEADERS are designed to cast large, heavy or air resistant flies. The leaders are made of a medium stiff nylon and have a powerful taper design that easily turn over streamers, big terrestrials (like hoppers and stoneflies), and cope with tough winds. The copolymer material is incredibly tough and highly abrasion resistant.
With a RIO Cranky kit, anglers can change lines quickly and efficiently as fishing conditions change. Simply wind the line off the reel through the rod on to the fly line spool that is provided, unloop the line from the backing, then loop the new line to the backing and wind the new line on to the reel. With this technique anglers will not need to restring the rod.
RIO Powerflex Tippet is a high knot strength copolymer nylon tippet that features superb knot strength, stretch and suppleness to make this the finest nylon tippet for almost all trout fly fishing needs.
RIO’S KAHUNA LT is an ingenious and subtle strike indicator made of a piece of high floating fly line with the core removed from the middle, leaving an empty tunnel. Simply break off the required length of indicator and thread the leader though the tunnel.
Fluoroflex Freshwater Tippet is a medium stiff, 100% fluorocarbon tippet material and is ideal for Steelhead, Salmon, Trout and Bass, and for casting larger flies. Clear in color, this freshwater tippet is nearly invisible to fish
RIO's Freshwater VersiLeaders are designed for the fly fisher who needs a quick-change option for converting a floating line to a sink tip. Each VersiLeader is 10ft long, tapered for the best in performance and has a 24lb nylon core. A neat, bullet-proof welded loop at the butt end allows for fast rigging.
