The Rio Elite Gold is a modern WF fly line that combines all current Rio technologies for a truly impressive casting performance. It has the slickest, most durable coating on the market due to the innovative SlickCast Technology. Therefore, it has an extremely low friction when shooting through the rod guides, which creates phenomenal casting properties that will last for a very long time due to its outstanding durability.
It has a long head for an impressive casting distance. And its special front taper allows delicate and precise presentations of flies in all relevant sizes – from a tiny #22 midge to a #2 trout streamer. Further, its long back taper enables absolutely great loop control, even when casting a long line. And the low-stretch ConnectCore Plus provides a direct contact to the fly for effective hook sets at all distances. Last but not least, the extremely high floating tip with MaxFloat Technology allows silent lifting without spray.
The modern Rio Elite Gold fly line: a great choice when long casts and complete line control are required – whether you’re fishing for trout in streams or lakes!
