Rio – Elite – Gold Max – Fly Line (NEW)

REAR LOADED / FULL SIZE HEAVY
HEAVYWEIGHT POWER

Primary:Heavy Indicator / Big Dry
Secondary:Streamer / Dry Dropper / Light Indicator

At a full line-size heavy, GOLD MAX is RIOs most powerful all-around taper for delivering plus-size rigs that get bites in fisheries not centered around long leaders and tiny drys. With the shortest head length in the GOLD class, MAX is purpose-built for smoothly loading weightier, unwieldy payloads. The short head carries more weight toward the back of the body so anglers can turn over heavier rigs more efficiently, while the shorter front taper combined with tapered body roll-casts bulkier rigs with ease, mends effortlessly at distance and delivers large drys with finesse. For powerful versatility, GOLD MAX lets you cast more weight under control, while also allowing for presentations decidedly cleaner than overly front-loaded line configurations.

Choose GOLD MAX for Maximum Power + Effortless Performance.

• Compact and powerful, the short head and full-size heavy weight carries heavier flies and rigs with ease
• Short rear taper for easier shooting on longer distance casts
• Rear-loaded body turns over heavier rigs more smoothly than aggressive, front-loaded designs and makes for easy roll casting and mending of the entire head
• Short front taper for more powerful turnover of heavier flies and indicator rigs

RIO Gold fly lines first took flight in 2008 brought to life on the unmerciful testing grounds of Idahos hard-earned Henrys Fork River. Hundreds of thousands of casts across endless miles of water later, the Gold Standard of multipurpose fly lines transformed the game by giving anglers the ability to transcend boundaries.

The newly minted lines in RIOs expanded Gold lineup run on a similar guiding principle: That the perfect multipurpose fly line empowers you to do more in the places you fish most. And because no region, water-type or fly box is the same, Gold Series now includes three distinct line classes XP, MAX and Classic Gold each driven by intentional designs and thoughtful payload distributions that play to the go to applications that define your everyday experiences on the water.
