Product information "Rio Elite CamoLux Sub Surface Slow Intermediate Seatrout & Trout Fly Line"
The high-quality fly lines from Rio Products are manufactured in the USA and have been setting the standard on the market for many years with innovative technologies. This is why many professional guides worldwide rely on Rio's premium lines and incorporate their valuable practical experience directly into product development. This is particularly evident in specialised intermediate lines such as the Rio Elite CamoLux, which was developed for inconspicuous presentations under the surface of the water and impresses with its camouflage pattern and sophisticated performance.
The Rio Elite Sub-Surface CamoLux Intermediate fly line is an intermediate line with a sink rate of around 1.5 to 2 inches per second, making it ideal for stillwater and clear lakes when targeting fish in the 2 to 6 foot depth range. The camouflage-coloured head zone helps to remain inconspicuous under water and minimise the spooking effect, which is a great advantage especially with cautious trout and sea trout. Despite the intermediate sinking behaviour, the line is easy and controlled to cast, allowing you to achieve stable loops and clean presentations.
A key feature of this line is the low-stretch ConnectCore Plus core, which enables maximum efficiency when loading the rod and direct power transmission to the fly. The reduced stretch ensures pronounced bite detection and precise control even when fishing in slightly deeper water. In addition, the line is provided with the SlickCast coating, which ensures particularly smooth gliding properties and high durability, making it easier to cast over longer distances and increasing the service life of the line.
Rio technologies:
SlickCast:
The exceptionally smooth and durable coating allows the line to glide through the rod guides with virtually no resistance. This ensures greater shooting ability, better range and a more comfortable casting feel.
ConnectCore Plus:
The low-stretch core ensures direct power transmission to the fly and noticeably improved bite detection which gives you more control and confidence when fishing.
In short: The Rio Elite CamoLux Intermediate fly line is a specially developed sub-surface intermediate line with a camouflage pattern and ideal sink rate for targeting cautious fish in lakes and stillwaters. It combines an inconspicuous camouflage-coloured head zone with SlickCast coating and ConnectCore Plus technology to create a versatile and powerful system.
