Rio Elite Permit Fly Line
The Rio Elite Permit is a modern WF floating line for targeting permit and other saltwater predators. It 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 impressive durability.
In addition to the most advanced material, this line offers an absolutely great and practice-oriented taper design. It is very easy to cast and it will easily load fast saltwater rods – even at close range. Due to its powerful casting properties and a relatively short front taper, it allows an accurate and delicate presentation of weighted crab patterns. Further, it has a long back taper for repositioning the fly within seconds, which is a truly outstanding feature for targeting picky permits. Regardless of the casting distance, the low-stretch DirectCore provides a direct contact to the fly and it enables effective hook sets at all distances. And due to its SureFire multicolour design, it allows perfect casting timing, easy distance control and great orientation while fishing – without spooking shy fish due to its naturally coloured front taper.
In short: The Elite Permit Fly Line combines a well-thought-out design and the best line technologies for a truly impressive performance. Without a doubt, this is one of the best permit lines ever made!
