Product information "Elite Gold"
The ULTIMATE, ALL-AROUND fly line with low-stretch, ultra-slick performance!
- Long head for ultimate casting control
- Built with RIO's exceptionally slick, duraable SlickCast
- Low-stretch ConnectCore Plus for the best in casting control, performance and smoothness
- Features RIO's SureFire tricolored measuring system for increased accuracy and distance control
- Taper design to cast flies between #22 and #2
The ELITE RIO GOLD has a taper design that gives incredible loop stability at distance and a front taper that delivers perfect presentation of flies between sizes #2 and #22. With a long head and back taper this line is an excellent all around fly line on rivers and lakes when long casts and complete line control are required. The low stretch core creates the smoothest, most durable fly lines ever made, with incredible levels of sensitivity when casting and fishing, and provides enhanced detection of takes, faster hook sets, and far greater control when playing a fish. In addition, this line is built with SlickCast, creating the slickest, most durable coating on the market—producing the least amount of friction ever measured in a fly line.

Fluorocarbon Hi-Energy Leader (9ft)
Tiemco produces the knotless tapered variation of these leaders. The advantage of fluorocarbon is that it is virtually invisible under water and it sinks into the surface. The Tiemco fluorocarbon fly leaders are a little stiffer than nylon fly leaders. This helps you to present the fly. Also fluorocarbon is almost invisible in water for fish.

4er Pack - TMC Fluorocarbon Vorfächer 9ft / 275cm
Das beste Fluorocarbon wird unserer Meinung nach in Japan hergestellt. TIEMCO bürgt für diese Super-Qualität. Die knotenlos gezogenen AKRON Fluorocarbon Hi-Energy Vorfächer sind für den Fisch nahezu unsichtbar, sind etwas steifer als herkömmliche Nylon-Vorfächer und verfügen damit über sehr gute Abrolleigenschaften. Das erleichtert Ihnen eine exakte Präsentation. Zudem verfügen die HI-ENERGY-Vorfächer über eine exzellente Abriebfestigkeit. Stärke Spitzendurchmesser (mm) Tragkraft (kg) 03X 0,35 9,8 02X 0,33 8,5 01X 0,30 7,1 0X 0,28 6,5 1X 0,26 6,0 2X 0,23 4,9 3X 0,20 3,7 4X 0,16 2,6 5X 0,14 2,0 6X 0,12 1,5 Fluorocarbon hat einen Lichtbrechungsfaktor der dem des Wassers sehr ähnlich ist. Damit wird es fast unsichtbar. Es ist UV-beständig und vor Alterungserscheinungen weitgehend geschützt. Da das spezifische Gewicht von Fluorocarbon höher als das von Nylon ist, sinkt das Fluorocarbonmaterial schneller als Nylon. Das hilft beim Nymphen- und Streamerfischen, weil Sie Ihre Fliege schneller auf Tiefe bringen. Es kann aber auch beim Trockenfliegenfischen von Vorteil sein, da eine leicht in den Oberflächenfilm eingesunkene Vorfachspitze für den Fisch kaum mehr zu erkennen ist. Das FLUORO STEALTH repräsentiert Fluorocarbon-Vorfachmaterial der Spitzenklasse! Es verfügt über sehr gute Tragkraftwerte und schneidet auch bei der Knotenfestigkeit sehr gut ab, solange Sie Fluorocarbon mit Fluorocarbon verknüpfen. Sollten Sie hingegen ein FLUORO STEALTH mit einem Vorfachmaterial aus Nylon verbinden wollen, so raten Ihnen unbedingt zum Einsatz von Vorfachringen. Bei der Verwendung von Fluorocarbon Vorfächern & Vorfachmaterial in Kombination mit Nylon Tippet, kann dieses Material durch die enorme Oberflächenhärte normales Nylon-Tippet zerschneiden.
Nev-R-Sink Floatant
Nev-R-Sink - it's just better! Nev-R-Sink has become a floatant legend in its own time. That it could be improved upon wasn't considered possible. Scientists didn't give up hope and carried on the extensive research. The result is Nev-R-Sink II. Your fly floats higher in the surface and even the finest CDC feathers aren't glued together.

Ambassador Blitz Fly Line
DELIVER BIG FLIES QUICKLY TO POWERFUL, FAST-MOVING FISH WITH WIND-CUTTING EFFICIENCY AND MINIMAL FALSE CASTSThe Blitz line’s short, 26-foot head enables the fastest possible delivery and easy shooting. An extended handling section behind the head allows the angler to carry more line for greater accuracy on long cast and easier pickups for second shots. The idea was inspired by chasing albies in the mid- Atlantic, but the Blitz line will be right at home in any fishery where speed counts in order to get a fly in front of fast-moving, feeding fish.- Unique 26-foot short head taper keeps false casts to a minimum- Extended handling section for greater accuracy on long casts and easier pickups on second shots- Multi-Density Control maintains a straight line connection to fly" Blitzes are brief surface feeding chaos and the RIO Blitz Line is like using the drive through window at a fast food joint. The short, heavy head loads the rod quickly, so the fly gets delivered with minimal false casting and an improved thicker running line makes retrieving and recasting a dream. The Blitz Line is not some one trick pony. It can deliver big nasty flies into tight cover or reachout with long probing casts. This taper and running line setup is also good for beginning casters, because the rod loads easily with less false casting."- Brian Horsley / RIO Ambassador
