Product information "ELITE Permit Fly Line"
The ultimate saltwater fly line for demanding permit fishing.
RIO‘s Elite Permit line features an easy casting taper that loads at close range, and a long back taper for fast, 2nd shot casts. The front taper and weight distribution is designed to give soft presentations so as not to spook wary Perms, while maintaining enough weight to easily cast typical crab patterns. Each line is built on RIO‘s low-memory DirectCore that is extremely easy to stretch and lies perfectly straight on the water, yet retains the stiffness needed to cast in hot conditions. In addition, this line is built with SlickCast.
Highlights and Technical Features:
- Effortless Casting Taper: A thoughtfully designed head loads quickly at short distances and features a long back taper for smooth, fast follow-up casts. Perfect for the fast-paced demands of flats fishing.
- Delicate Presentations: The front taper and weight distribution are tailored to deliver soft, subtle presentations - ideal for not spooking wary permit - while still maintaining enough punch to turn over typical crab patterns with ease.
- Low‑Memory DirectCore: Built on RIO’s revolutionary DirectCore, this line offers minimal stretch, superior bite detection, and the stiffness needed to handle hot tropical conditions without tangling.
- SlickCast-Technologie: SlickCast creates the slickest, most durable coating on the market – producing the least amount of friction ever measured on a fly line. Allows anglers to fish more effectively as line slides out of the guides with less friction for extended drag-free drifts.
- SureFire Color System: Easy distance tracking and better timing with clearly visible color transitions.
- EasyID Kennzeichnung: Schnelle und eindeutige Identifikation der Schnur am Wasser.
- Welded Front and Back Loops: Welded loop fly line tips float better and enable a rapid change of leader.
- Color: Sand/Orange/Aqua Blue
- Sink Rate: Floating

Product development like that won't happen all by itself – that level of commitment is going to require thousands more hours on the water – but somebody's got to do it, and that somebody is RIO. No matter what line family, price level or quality RIO fly line you choose, you can fish happy in the knowledge that every single fly line is made in our Idaho Falls facility – close to the banks of our premium testing grounds, the Henry’s Fork and the South Fork of the Snake in Idaho. Fly line manufacturing is a complicated business requiring incredibly sophisticated machinery.
RIO spends thousands of hours on the water researching, designing & refining products.
