Rio's new Gold line was introduced for 2008 and has been popular with anglers as an all-round, very versatile line. The unique taper design makes this line load the rod at close ranges and turn-over a wide range of fly sizes with ease. The long belly and rear taper allow for good line control, roll casting, and allow advanced casters to carry more line in the air. The two-tone coloration of the line lets you know where you're at on the line in a glance. Other features include Rio's Extreme Slickness and Agent X technologies for a very slick, dirt-repelling coating and their Super Floatation Technology to make the line float as high as possible. As with all of Rio's premium trout lines, a loop is built into the line for easily attaching and removing leaders. Length is 90ft for sizes 3-5 and 100ft for 6-8.
