Product information "Elite Warmwater Predator (Floating/Sink5/Sink7)"
Get Big Flies Down Fast in Tropical Conditions
The RIO Elite Warmwater Predator F/S5/S7 is designed for demanding predator fishing in warm and tropical conditions. It delivers large, heavy and wind-resistant flies in warmwater and jungle applications, with authority while getting them down quickly into deeper water.
This version combines a floating running line with a 10 ft Sink 5 section followed by a 10 ft Sink 7 tip. The two front sections sink at approximately 5 and 7 inches per second. This gets your fly down fast while the floating running line makes line management, mending and pickup easier.
Powerful Taper for Large and Heavy Flies
Large flies for Peacock Bass, Golden Dorado and other powerful warmwater predators demand a fly line with plenty of power.
The short, powerful front taper transfers energy efficiently through the leader and turns over large, bulky streamers with ease. Its specialized weight distribution helps load powerful fly rods quickly while providing the control required for accurate casts.
F/S5/S7 for Deep Water
The F/S5/S7 is the fastest sinking configuration in the Elite Warmwater Predator family. RIO combines a floating running line with two different sinking densities in the front of the line.
Configuration:
- Floating running line
- 10 ft Sink 5 section at approximately 5 ips
- 10 ft Sink 7 tip at approximately 7 ips
This density combination gets large flies down quickly and helps keep them in the fishing zone during the retrieve. It is an excellent choice for deep pools, river channels and situations where predators are holding well below the surface.
DirectCore for Hot and Tropical Conditions
RIO builds the Elite Warmwater Predator on its low-stretch DirectCore. The core is designed to perform in warm conditions and provides direct contact between angler and fly.
Low stretch also delivers powerful strip sets, an important advantage when fishing for strong predators with hard mouths or setting the hook at distance.
SlickCast and SureFire Technology
RIO's SlickCast coating reduces friction through the guides for efficient shooting performance and high durability.
The SureFire three-colour measuring system provides an immediate visual reference for head position and casting distance, helping you control the line during repeated casts.

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. 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.

King Flow Fly (Olive) (6 pcs)
GO WITH THE FLOW! One of the holy grails of trout streamers is capturing a big natural profile with minimal mass that casts easily and swims freely. The Flow Fly is the lightest, twitchiest big streamer you can throw. Because of the way it is constructed, with flashy innards and natural flowing collars and wings surrounding them, it forms the perfect, fishy teardrop baitfish shape, whether swung on a trout spey or stripped off the banks from a drift boat. Tied on a lightly weighted shank with a trailing stringer hook, and in a range of natural colors, the Flow Fly connects with both the reluctant nippers and the more aggressive headbangers.
