RIO’s premium 65lb, 8 carrier backing is made
of the finest materials from Japan. 8 Strands of
tightly woven fibers makes for a round backing
that stacks perfectly on the fly reel. The result is a
stronger, softer and smoother performing backing.
The breaking strain and diameter make this a
perfect choice for all fishing, from pan fish to
ultra-big game such as GTs, billfish, and Tarpon.
This universal backing is appropriate for any rod/
reel size and equally suited for all species; from
Trout to Tarpon. It is roughly the same diameter as
traditional 20lb Dacron backing and reel capacity
can be determined as such. Available in perfect fill
amounts for every angling situation.
