What Line weight (AFTM) means: The AFTM line weight (#1 to #15) tells you how heavy the fly line is. Rod, reel and line should share the same weight. Rule of thumb: #3–#5 for trout and grayling, #6–#7 for sea trout and streamers, #8–#10 for pike, salmon and saltwater.
What Length (ft) means: Length in feet (ft) and inches ("). 1 ft = 30.5 cm, so a 9'0" rod is 2.74 m long. 9 ft is the all-rounder; shorter rods suit small streams, longer ones long casts and nymphing.
What Line taper means: How the weight is distributed along the line. WF (weight forward): weight up front, the all-rounder. DT (double taper): tapered at both ends for delicate presentation. ST/shooting head: short heavy head for long casts. Scandi and Skagit: shooting heads for double-handed and switch rods.
What Density means: How the line behaves in the water. F = floating, H = hover (sinks very slowly), I = intermediate (sinks slowly), S1 to S8 = sinking: the higher the number, the faster (roughly inches per second). ST = sink tip, only the tip sinks. Several values (e.g. F/I/S3) mean a set or a line with sections of different density.
What Weight (grains) means: Weight of the shooting head in grains (1 grain = 0.065 g). More precise than the line weight for double-handed lines and shooting heads. Check the grain recommendation of your rod.
What Hook size (#) means: The higher the number, the smaller the hook: #18 is tiny, #4 is large. From 1/0 ("one aught") it reverses, 4/0 is larger than 1/0. Typical: dry flies #14–#20, nymphs #10–#16, streamers #2–#8, pike 1/0–4/0.
Manufacturer Navigation
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.

Premier Fathom CleanSweep
RIO’S CLEANSWEEP LINES are a series of sinking lines built with a clear intermediate front end, seamlessly attached to a faster sinking body section and then to a slower sinking running line. This blend of sink rates results in a deadly fly path through the water, with the line “sweeping” the depths during a retrieve - from the surface, to deep, and back to the surface again – covering a multitude of depths with each cast. Each line has a short, quick-loading head for minimizing the number of false casts, and a Hang Marker that shows anglers when to stop stripping. The CleanSweep version features a 2m clear (intermediate) tip with a welded loop on the front end. Length: 32mColor: clear / black / dark aqua

It redefines floating line performance. MaxCast lines float higher, shoot farther, last longer and stay cleaner. AgentXTraditionally, 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 PlusRIO’s ConnectCore 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.
