A few years ago we asked ourselves how we could make a good backing even better. After analysing the most important requirements for a backing we discovered that these were an even greater tensile strength - at a lower volume, a longer life, UV stability and very strong knot strength. We tested various materials and the breakthrough came when we combined a new braiding technique with a high performance thread. The result is the best backing that we know of. The main advantage is that even though it has a very small diameter, it has the quality to flatten out on the reel. This means no more cutting through itself! The tensile strength is 40 % higher, the diameter 35 % less than conventional backing and the fluorescent colour is easily visible. The tensile strength is 45 lbs (approx. 21 kg)! This may appear exorbitant to some Trout anglers but, even in this situation, our Super Backing does have the advantage of the fish feeling less water pressure on the line, during long runs and drills. When fly fishing for larger fish this advantage becomes even more apparent.

There are times when a fluorescent coloured backing is a great advantage. It is essential, especially when fighting very large species, to be able to track the path of a running fish. A coloured fluorescent backing helps you to do this.This is not only true for saltwater fly fishing, it also applies to Salmon, Pike, Steelhead and large Trout. A new production process has allowed us to produce a backing that, even when loaded tightly onto the spool, doesn‘t cut into the backing beneath it forming a weak spot. Fly rodders have praised good backing on many occasions, after all, on the day of the big catch a weak backing is the last thing you need!

Exceptionally powerful, easy casting line built for casting big flies, and for maximum distance, with ultra-slick performance Front loaded to cast large flies with ease Designed for easy distance Built with RIO's exceptionally slick, durable SlickCast coating Multi Density Control on select sinking options RIO’s OutBound Short series of lines are designed to cast large and heavy flies and get huge distances easily. Built with a short, aggressive front taper that easily carries large, weighted streamers, and a powerful head design that loads rods deeply and quickly for fast, easy distance. A full range of densities make this a very versatile line series for both the freshwater and saltwater angler. Best of all, the line is built with SlickCast—the slickest, most durable coating on the market. There are 6 different density lines to cover every fishing situation: A Full Floating line (F), for top water action A Floating Line with 15ft of "hover" Sinking line, then 15ft of clear Intermediate Sinking line at the front (F/H/I), for fishing 2-3 ft deep A Full Intermediate Sinking line with a 15ft clear tip (I), for fishing 3-5ft deep An Intermediate sinking line with 17ft of Medium Sinking line, then 13ft of Fast Sinking Line at the front (I/S3/S5), for fishing 4-8ft deep An Intermediate sinking line with 17ft of Fast Sinking line, then 13ft of Extra Fast Sinking Line at the front (I/S5/S7), for fishing 6-12ft deep A Full, Extra-Fast Sinking "Dredger" line (S7), for maximum depth FLOATING / HOVER / INTERMEDIATE Line Size Line Colours Sink Rates 30' Head Weight Head Length Total Length WF6 Clear/Moss/Ivory Float/1ips/2ips 235gr (15gm) 30ft (9.1m) 100ft (30.5m) WF7 Clear/Moss/Ivory Float/1ips/2ips 265gr (17gm) 30ft (9.1m) 100ft (30.5m) WF8 Clear/Moss/Ivory Float/1ips/2ips 330gr (21gm) 30ft (9.1m) 100ft (30.5m) WF9 Clear/Moss/Ivory Float/1ips/2ips 375gr (24gm) 30ft (9.1m) 100ft (30.5m) WF10 Clear/Moss/Ivory Float/1ips/2ips 425gr (28gm) 30ft (9.1m) 100ft (30.5m) SlickCastSlickCast creates the slickest, most durable coating on the market – producing the least amount of friction ever measured on a fly line. Multi Density ControlMulti Density Control is a combination of different density sinking coatings in a single line that gives anglers complete depth control and perfect contact with the fly Features: DualToneMarks the sweet spot of a fly line by providing an obvious color change in the line at the sweet spot. EasyIDRIO’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 LoopA neat, bulletproof loop welded at the end of the fly line for fast rigging to backing.

This fly line cleaner combines the following four advantages in one product: it cleans your fly line, maintains the coating for a longer life, improves the floating abilities and facilitates incredible shooting abilities. Just put a little amount into a clean cloth and pull the line through the cloth. Then your fly line will be rejuvenated! Content: 30 ml
