Leland on the Rio Coldwater Clouser Fly Line
Anyone who's been forced to cast large, lead-eyed flies with a maneuver called the 'chuck and duck' will appreciate the Rio Coldwater Clouser Fly Line. The taper of the Coldwater Clouser is designed to cast large, weighted, wind-resistant flies with the greatest level of control and precision possible. So whether you're launching half a chicken in toward a muskie lie, or you're sending a string leech toward the opposite bank, you'll appreciate how the Rio Coldwater Clouser Fly Line makes your task less of a chore.
