Rio Saltwater Light Shock 10 ft Tapered Leader
Product information "Rio Saltwater Light Shock 10 ft Tapered Leader"
The Rio Light Saltwater Shock Leader is a specially developed, lightweight saltwater leader with a total length of 10 ft (approx. 3.05m). It combines a medium stiff, tapered nylon leader with a fluorocarbon shock tippet that protects the leader from teeth, gill plates and sharp structures. This design makes it ideal for situations where you need a robust fly and high resilience, for example when fishing for snook, small tarpon or similar demanding saltwater species.
The body section of the leader is designed to enable powerful energy transfer when casting and reliably turn large patterns cleanly. The fluorocarbon shock tippet at the end increases abrasion resistance and provides additional protection against hard bites and sharp-edged structures that are often found in saltwater. The lightweight yet robust construction makes the leader versatile and ensures long-lasting performance even in rough conditions.
The Saltwater Light Shock 10 ft leader is available in several load capacity variants that cover different loads. Whether you're fishing smaller saltwater species or stronger fish, this leader offers a balanced combination of presentation, strength and abrasion resistance to increase your chances of catching fish.
