RIO’s Elite Bonefish line has a long head and back
taper to smooth out the loop, and to make long
efficient casts, while the mid length front taper
produces great turnover and easy presentation of
typical bonefish flies. 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.
In addition, this line is built with SlickCast,
creating the slickest, most durable coating
on the market—producing the least amount
of friction ever measured in a fly line.
Technology:
DirectCore - In hot, humid conditions, DirectCore lines provide the stiffness you need to fire into the wind, with significantly reduced memory. Which means your line lies straighter on the water for a more direct connection to fly and fish. DirectCore is also 25% stronger than other monofilament cores of equal size, and stretches 30% less at breaking point. In short, DirectCore makes you a better angler on the flats, in the mangroves and off the beach.
SlickCast creates the slickest, most durable coating on the market — producing the least amount of friction ever measured on a fly line. What does slick get you? For starters, line flies through the guides with higher line speeds for unprecedented and easy distance. The slick coating also allows anglers to fish more effectively as line slides out of the guides with less friction for extended drag-free drifts.
Features:
SUREFIRE is Rio's triple color marking system that improves casting accuracy by making it easy to gauge exact distances with a quick glance.
EASY ID RIO’s printed line marking system to allow anglers to quickly and easily identify each line.
FRONT & BACK WELDED LOOP A neat, bullet-proof welded loop on the front and and rear end for fast rigging.
