Rio Elite Flats Pro

Conquer the flats with RIO’s Flats Pro tropical saltwater line. This line has a mid length head and long back taper for smooth, effortless loops, and a weight distribution that provide perfect presentations of just about any fly you are likely to use. Each line is built on RIO’s low-memory DirectCore that is extremely easy to anneal (stretch) and lies perfectly straight on the water, yet retains the stiffness needed to cast in hot conditions. In addition the line is built with SlickCast—the slickest, most durable coating on the market. The core strength of this line is as follows: WF6 - WF7 = 30lb (13.6kg) WF8 - WF9 = 45lb (20.4kg) WF10 - WF12 = 60lb (27.2kg)   SUREFIRE RIO’s triple color line marking system that makes it easy to gauge distances and load, with a quick glance. EASYID RIO’s printed line marking system that allows anglers to quickly and easily identify each line. FRONT WELDED LOOP A neat, bulletproof loop welded at the front of the fly line for fast Spey-specific rigging. BACK WELDED LOOP A neat, bulletproof loop welded at the end of the fly line for fast rigging to backing.
