Powerful, easy casting shooting heads that make long distance casts simple

• RIO‘s shooting heads are based on the popular OutBound Short lines, and are designed to cast very long distances. The front loaded weight distribution quickly loads a rod, while the unique step down taper at the back allows for very long flight times and easy distance. The heads are built two sizes above the AFTM standard to correctly load modern rods - anglers do not need to step up a line size when choosing a line for their rod, as this is done in the design. Each head has an Easy ID loop at the back end for quick recognition.
• Unique taper design that stays in the air, resulting in long distance casts

WF-8-F to WF-11-F

New for 2015. Fast sinking, level tungsten tips that sink like a rock

• These fast sinking, level tips use tungsten powder for density, not lead and, as a result, are supple, do not kink and sink like a rock. Built on RIO’s ultra-low stretch ConnectCore, they are extremely sensitive to soft grabs and ensure fast, solid hook sets.
• The tips are color-coded for quick identification and are made with an easy-to-weld coating
• Each tip is designed to be cut and tuned to the angler’s individual fishing and casting requirements
• Loops available on all 30ft lengths, except for T-20

Designed with greater suppleness and shock absorption for use on light lines. Floating, hover and intermediate leaders ensure the most delicate of presentations to spooky fish in lakes and spring creeks whilst the sinking versions allow nymphs to be fished at depth without adding weight to the fly or shot to the tippet.

Max. tippet 8lb

Available in 5’ lengths.

SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR ANGLERS FISHING IN TROPICAL HEAT

RIO’s JUNGLE SERIES of fly lines are designed to withstand the heat of tropical and jungle destinations. Each line is built on RIO’s low-memory DirectCore that is extremely easy to anneal (stretch) and lies perfectly straight on the water, yet retains the stiffness needed to cast in hot conditions. Each line has a short, quick loading head that will easily cast and turnover typical large flies, and a range of density options ensures anglers are covered for all species, conditions and waters.

The F/I has a floating running line, with a 30ft intermediate head, of which the front 10ft is clear. The F/S3 is a floating line with the front 20ft of type 3 sinking (3-4" ips). The F/S6 is a floating line with the front 20ft of type 6 sinking (6-7" ips)

The core strength of this line is as follows:

WF7 = 30lb

WF8 = 40lb

WF9 - WF10 = 50lb

• Powerful front taper that delivers larger flies with exceptional ease
• Perfect for “jungle” species such as Peacock Bass, Dorado and Pacu
• Easy annealing, low-memory core that lays perfectly straight
• Hard, tropical coating that will not wilt in the heat
