Product information "Rio InTouch Big Nasty 3D Sink Tip F/H/I Fly Line"
If you like it 'big' and 'nasty' this is your new favorite! The award winning Rio InTouch Big Nasty Multi-Density Fly Lines: IFTD 2018 ("Best of Show Fly Line Freshwater") and EFTTEX 2018 ("Best New Product").
RIO’S INTOUCH BIG NASTY SINK TIP line is the perfect sink tip for casting large streamers, with a front-loaded weight distribution that easily casts the biggest of flies. The line features RIO’s Multi Density Control - a seamless blend of three or four densities that ensures the smoothest transition of energy when casting, and the best depth control when fishing. It is made with an ultra-low stretch core for the maximum in sensitivity and performance. This is the easiest casting, fishiest sink tip line ever made.
Responsible for the outstanding performance when casting big flies is the short and powerful front taper and a line weight above AFTMA industry standards. Further features of the RIO Big Nasty are: RIO Connect Core and RIO XS (extreme slickness). Big Nasty lines come with welded loops on both ends and cover all freshwater predatory specie, from big trout to pike.
3D F/H/I (Float/Hover/Intermediate): This optiom is perfect for fishing flies in the top 2 feet of the water column.
Rio Technology:
- ConnectCore: Rio'S InTouch fly lines come with an ultra-low stretch ConnectCore Technology which improves the overall feeling for handling the line while casting and fishing. As well it makes hook sets much more effective, even with long line.
- XS (Extreme Slickness): Every fly fisherman is looking for a slicker line, and for good reason. Slicker line means longer casts, which is something all anglers strive to achieve. XS Technology is the latest development from RIO's lab coats that focuses on creating an ultra slick line, with dirt-repelling tendencies.
