Rio Premier Creek Fly Line
Short Rod. Tight Space. Big Precision.
The RIO Premier Creek Fly Line is purpose-built for small stream action—tight loops, fast-loading casts, and pinpoint accuracy in close quarters. With an ultra-short head and compact front taper, this line excels at quick shots, roll casts, and bow-and-arrow deliveries under overhangs or between boulders.
Perfectly balanced for short rods (under 8’6”), the Creek line loads fast and delivers flies with just a few feet of line out. It features RIO’s SlickCast coating for ultimate durability and MaxFloat Tip for superior buoyancy in tight pockets and riffles.
