Leland on Rio Striped Bass Fly Line
The
RIO Striped Bass Fly Line could just be the ultimate striper line for you! The bullet tapered 40' clear Aqualux head portion, based on the Clouser Lines, can
rocket big striper flies long distances. The integral 60' super slick running line provides seamless casting and can even be charged with a flashlight to make it luminous for night fishing! Wow, it's scary what you might hook out there after midnight! The intermediate density gets the line down below the chop for superior 'contact' and, of course, the clear head can fool even the wariest of grizzled old stripes. Add one of the
RIO Density Compensated 26' head fast sinking lines, as well, and you can cover all your Striper situations, from top to bottom. Then, stripers should fear you.
