Elite Grand Fly Line

Elite Grand Fly Line

Description

The Elite Grand Fly Line is the ultimate choice for anglers who prefer modern, fast action fly rods.

Designed specifically for fast-action fly rods, this line offers low stretch and ultra-slick performance. It's worth noting that the Elite RIO Grand is a full line size heavier than the industry standard. Its weight is distributed towards the front of the line, making it easier to load faster action fly rods. Even novice casters can benefit from this line, as it provides a little more feel when casting.

This exceptional line is built with RIO's low-stretch ConnectCore Plus technology. As a result, it delivers remarkably smooth and durable fly lines. The low-stretch feature also provides incredible sensitivity, allowing anglers to detect takes faster and achieve faster hook sets. Furthermore, it offers better control when playing a fish. To top it off, this line is equipped with SlickCast, RIO's exclusive coating technology, which makes it the slickest and most durable fly line on the market. Lab tests have confirmed that SlickCast has the lowest amount of friction ever measured in a fly line.

For those seeking the best line for modern, fast action fly rods, look no further than the RIO Grand.
