RIO Elite Indictor Fly Line
$129.99
Wading anglers and anglers fishing from an anchored boat can maximize their drift with this line by casting far upstream, mending as their rig drifts even with their position, then stack mending with ease as it travels far downstream. The long head allows for more efficient mending at distance while also helping stack mending techniques downstream, creating a seamless and longer natural drift. 30ft weights are roughly two AFFTA sizes heavy to make carrying and turnover of big indicators and heavy nymph rigs a breeze. Strike, Set, Game On.
