Description
The Rio Elite Gold Fly Line has a taper design that gives incredible loop stability at distance and a front taper that delivers perfect presentation of flies between sizes #2 and #22. With a long head and back taper this line is an excellent all around fly line on rivers and lakes when long casts and complete line control are required.
This line is built with RIO’s low-stretch ConnectCore Plus, resulting in exceptionally smooth, durable fly lines, with the added benefits of incredible levels of sensitivity when casting and fishing, and providing enhanced detection of takes, faster hook sets, and far greater control when playing a fish. In addition, this line is built with SlickCast, RIO’s proprietary coating technology, creating the slickest, most durable fly lines on the market. Lab tests show that lines built with SlickCast have the least amount of friction ever measured in a fly line.
The RIO Gold is the ultimate all-around, floating line for the trout fly fisher.
- Long head and standard weight configuration maximize ability to carry line and mend at distance
- Long rear taper improves long-cast line control, both in the air and on the water when mending
- Front-loaded body loads rods on shorter casts while maintaining the ability to carry long lengths of line
- Mid-length front taper turns over heavier rigs on shorter leaders powerfully or tiny drys on long leaders with finesse
Technology
- The next-generation, low-stretch core provides a radical increase in line durability, smoothness and performance. The highest-performing, longest-lasting freshwater lines in the world are built around ConnectCore Plus.
- SLICKCAST – SlickCast creates the slickest, most durable coating on the market – producing the least amount of friction ever measured on a fly line.
- MAXFLOAT TIP – MaxFloat Tip technology is a high float coating that floats more than twice as high as regular fly line tips, without any increase in diameter
