Product information "Rio Elite Integrated Skagit Max Power Fly Line"
Skagit shooting heads are short, aggressive heads that create a lot of excitement, especially when fishing with streamers. The short, heavy heads are extremely easy to get distance from, even with little backspace. In addition, Skagit heads make it possible to carry very heavy flies as well as fast-sinking tips.
The Rio Elite Integrated Skagit Max power fly line is such a short, aggresive skagit head, in combination with an integrated running line - ready to go. The head of the Skagit Max power fly line is 5.8 m - 6.1 m long and with a unique weight distribution to load switch and two-handed rods long and deep to get maximum casting distances. In doing so, the cleverly designed taper of the head seamlessly transfers power into the sink tip and to the fly, making incredibly tight, powerful loops possible that maintain full power until the fly is stretched. Due to the low stretch core of the line, you get incredible sensitivity in the cast but also with every little contact on the fly, allowing you to achieve optimal hooking performance. The Rio Skagit head also features RIO's new SlickCast Coating, the smoothest and most durable coating for fly lines on the market.
Rio Technology:
- Slick Cast
The name says it all! With this new technology, Rio has really shaken up the fly line market. Rio itself promotes it as the smoothest coating on the market. Shootability, noise minimization and longevity of the line are improved. We ourselves found the lines so smooth that we had to rein ourselves in a bit at first to avoid overshooting the metaphorical mark. So we can subscribe to Rio's claim
- DirectCore
Low-stretch braided core for saltwater lines gives you ultimate control over your streamer. The braid is strong and supple in equal measure, even in hot conditions the line offers unrestricted performance. The stretch is reduced by about 30% compared to other lines, so that even at long distances the hook can be set immediately.
