Leland on the Rio AquaLux MidgeTip Fly Line
The Rio Aqualux Midge Tip Fly Line is a floating fly line with a short intermediate tip, designed for fishing wet flies, streamers, and nymphs in the top foot or so of lakes and ponds. With a 39 inch clear tip section that sinks at 1.5 to 2 inches per second, the Rio Aqualux Midge Tip Fly Line pulls your fly out of the surface tension to put it on the nose of cruising trout; but with its floating head and running line, the Midge Tip will keep your fly from ever dropping too deep in the water column, and makes quick re-casts easy.
