The choice of Florida
captains. With a short, forward taper and a hard, smooth coating on a
stiff single strand monofilament core, RIO's tarpon fly lines can cast
heavy tarpon flies long distances with improved accuracy and great
turnover. Total head length varies from 36 ft - 40 ft (11 m - 12.3 m).
Available as a floating line, a floating line with a 9 ft AquaLux®
intermediate sinking tip or green tint full intermediate with a 9.5 ft
AquaLux tip (1.5 ips .7 cm/s). The sinking tip and full intermediate
lines feature the same taper as the Clouser line.The intermediate tip
has no loops or joints and is very useful, because unlike a full
intermediate fly line, the angler can roll cast once to break the line
loose, back cast, and get a second shot at the tarpon. F/I line is the
line of choice to get under the floating grass to prevent weeds from
fouling the fly. The F/I line is also the best tarpon line in extreme
wind. Hard tropical coating on single strand monofilament core.
