NEW! RIO ELITE TECHNICAL TROUT FLY LINE (WF3- WF6)
RIO’s Elite Technical Trout line features a long, fine front taper for the lightest of presentations and delicacy and is the ideal choice of line when fishing dry flies, nymphs, soft hackles and emergers to tricky eaters at distance. The line has a long head and back taper to increase loop control when carrying long lengths, and for making precise casts to rising fish, while the weight distribution makes it easy to turn over long leaders for technical feeders at range. This line is built with RIO's low-stretch ConnectCore Plus, resulting in exceptionally smooth, durable fly lines, with the added benefits of incredible levels of sensitivity when casting and fishing, and providing enhanced detection of takes, faster hook sets, and far greater control when playing a fish. In addition, this line is built with SlickCast, RIO's proprietary coating technology, creating the slickest, most durable fly lines on the market. Lab tests show that lines built with SlickCast have the least amount of friction ever measured in a fly line.
FEATURES:
- Long head for ultimate casting control
- Taper design to cast flies between #22 and #2
- Low-stretch ConnectCore Plus for the best in casting control, performance and smoothness
- Built with RIO's exceptionally slick, durable SlickCast
- Features RIO's SureFire tricolored measuring system for increased accuracy and distance control

After 50+ days on the water, i need to find a new line for the upcoming season. The performance out of the box was excellent, but it couldn't stand up to the rigors that a fly line regularly encounters. By the end of the year, the line had developed three deep cuts to the core as well as numerous surface abrasions that affected the casting performance. I knew i was sacrificing some durability for the extra delicacy, but i need to get more than one season out of my gear. The line also holds a lot of memory compared to other lines I've used, particularly in warmer weather. I originally submitted this review directly on the Rio (Far Bank) website, but they didn't post it. Try to find a negative review of a Sage rod or a Rio line on their website. Hmm, think I'll try something from SA or Airflo.

Fantastic performance so far. Just as good as high end SA line.

Great line. What a upgrade from what my orvis clearwater set up came with. Highly recommend. Worth the extra money

I have been using SA Smooth Trout and decided to give this line a try. The colors of the line are way better and with the slightly more weight makes for a nice dry fly line. The line is very slick too.
