RIO’s Mainstream bass fly lines have been developed to meet the overall needs of the average and novice fly fisher, and are designed to optimize rod performance with slightly heavier and shorter head lengths.
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.
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.
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 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 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.
