Rio Elite Technical Trout WF Fly Line

Subtle Presentation. Surgical Control. Built for the Picky Ones.

The RIO Elite Technical Trout is designed for anglers who thrive on finesse. Whether you're drifting a #20 PMD through a glassy tailout or presenting a long leader across a spring creek, this line offers the ultimate in precision and control.

Built with RIO’s low-stretch ConnectCore Plus and SlickCast coating, it delivers incredibly smooth loops, reduced drag, and maximum sensitivity. The extended front taper and long head allow for laser-focused accuracy at distance and soft landings that won’t spook even the snobbiest risers.

• Long, delicate taper for stealth and presentation
