It redefines floating line performance. MaxCast lines float higher, shoot farther, last longer and stay cleaner. AgentX Traditionally, getting a fly line to float has required mixing tiny glass balls (called microspheres) into the line’s coating. After years of experimentation RIO has developed a unique element which is six times more buoyant than those used by other fly line manufacturers. This process is called „Fusion Technology”. By simultaneously processing this super-buoyant undercoating with an ultra-smooth outer coating the results are the smoothest, most highest floating fly lines imaginable. Connect Core Plus RIO’s ConnectCore Plus full-sinking lines open up new worlds of perception and sensitivity with no-stretch performance. Soft, subtle takes become positive grabs, and without stretch to dull reaction times, hook sets are instant and sure. ConnectCore - The secret weapon for stillwater success. Welded Loops RIO pioneered / originated the innovative welded loop technique. Welded loop fly line tips float better and enable a rapid change of leader. Almost all RIO fly lines are supplied with these small welded loops, please see the appropriate line diagram for information.
Backing 20 lbs (chartreuse) 100 yds
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!

Euro Nymph Shorty
RIO’S EURO NYMPH SHORTY is an ultra-thin, super-sensitive fly line designed for Euro nymphing. The line is deliberately made short (20 feet) so it can be added to the front end of a regular fly line utilizing the thin welded loop on each end. The idea is that anglers can fish their normal fly fishing style with their regular trout line, and when they come to a run they want to fish Euro nymph style, they simply loop the Shorty on and start nymphing. Quick, easy and no need for an extra rod or reel.
FIPS Euro Nymph orange / sage / olive (#2-5)
The Euro Nymph line was designed to satisfy the need for a one size fits all European style nymphing line that is competition legal. The line is built on a thin diameter, low stretch, supple core to maximize sensitivity and allow for lightning fast hook sets, while a highly visible tip helps anglers detect the slightest of strikes. This line is designed specifically for European style nymphing techniques, such as „French“, „Czech“, „Polish“ and „Spanish“ styles. Line: one size fits all rods #2 - 5Length: 24,4 meterColor: orange / sage / olive Technologys XS (Extreme Slickness)The RIO test laboratories carried out extensive practical experiments and material combinations, until they discovered the secret behind the XS Technology. The result is a ge-neration of fly lines with a slicker surface. On the water this leads to longer and more accurate casts, less abrasion, less dirt attraction and an overall better performance. ;Welded LoopsRIO pioneered / originated the innovative welded loop technique.
