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.
The Amplitude Smooth series of lines are, simply put, the highest-performance smooth fly lines in the world.
With up to five times less drag and eight times the durability of traditional lines, this will change the way you look at fly line performance.

The first series of lines to feature the revolutionary AST PLUS slickness additive, Amplitude Textured series will shoot farther and last longer than any other line on the market.
It’s slickness down to a science.

You’ve got articulated streamers and poppers hanging from the lampshade on your desk.
You think in terms of bass, both smallmouth and largemouth.
The term conehead doesn’t refer to an old comedy sketch.
We totally get it.
For years, the gold standard in the Scientific Anglers lineup was the GPX taper.
From tossing small dries to slinging huge streamers, the GPX could do it all.
But all good things must come to an end.
So part of the equation is getting flies in front of fish.
The next part is not spooking them while doing so.
Our SONAR Sink 30 Clear fly line offers the same casting benefits of the SONAR Sink 30 taper, but substitutes a 30′ slow-sinking clear head.
When stealth isn’t an option, the best choice is to go clear.
Get this: we took one of our most popular tapers, the Titan, drenched it in various mixtures of tungsten powder, and created a triple-density sinking fly line that will absolutely change the way you fish streamers forever.
Sometimes the biggest trout live where back casts aren’t your best friend.
Sonar Trout Express has a short, rear weighted head that excels at roll casting large streamers in tight spaces.

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.
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.
Powerflex Plus Trout Leaders are the strongest trout leaders ever made, with tensile strengths up to 20% more than regular leaders. A technical modification of the nylon copolymer formulation has resulted in prodigious strength increase, without compromising the knot strength or suppleness. Simply put, these are the strongest, most reliable trout leaders ever made.
