RIO Products proudly announces the Selective Trout II – the ultimate presentation fly line.
IDAHO FALLS, February 1st, 2008 – For 2008 RIO has developed the Selective Trout II fly line to help the fly angler excel in technical fishing conditions by making accurate casts and delicate presentations easy.
The Selective Trout II fly lines are available with a unique weight forward or double taper profile, made especially for selective trout fishing in all weather conditions. The weight forward line features a long front taper for feather-light dry fly presentations, and an extended rear taper for effortless roll casting and mending. RIO has reinvented the timeless double taper by increasing the weight slightly behind the front taper to turnover the long front taper and longer leaders with ease.
The Selective Trout II is built with the supplest and slickest coating RIO has ever produced. This new coating eliminates line memory and aids in the softest of presentations. These attributes make the line a perfect choice for bamboo and softer action fly rods.
The Selective Trout II is manufactured using RIO’s state-of-the-art manufacturing processes and incorporates the new Extreme Slickness Technology for an extraordinarily slick, dirt-repelling coating that results in longer casts. The line also includes RIO’s proprietary AgentX® and Super Floatation Technologies™, ensuring the line tip and running line will not sink and resulting in the smoothest coatings ever made in a fly line.
The Selective Trout II lines are available in either a subtle olive color, ideal for New Zealand or wary fish, in a WF1F to WF7F and a DT1F to DT6F, or an easy to see chartreuse in WF3F to WF7F and DT3F to DT6F.
Like the rest of RIO’s premier trout lines, the weight forward Selective Trout II lines
incorporate a thin welded loop to easily change leader, or to add of one of RIO’s VersiLeaders,
converting the line into a sink tip. The Double Taper Selective Trout lines do not have welded loops.
This new Selective Trout II is available from all authorized RIO dealers and has a recommended retail price of $64.95.
