Rio
Features
- + RIO’s GripShooter is based on the very popular SlickShooter, but has a thick, coated handling section that makes it very easy to grip in cold conditions.
- + The thin nylon shooting line gives caster’s the maximum distance and is light enough to hold off the water at range and allow anglers great control of their head and fly far out in the swing
- + All fly lines are made with pride in our Idaho Fall facility
- + A neat 8" welded loop at the front end allows for fast and efficient head changes
The RIO GripShooter 35lb is a specialized shooting line built for Great Lakes spey and two-hand anglers who need maximum distance on big swinging runs for steelhead and salmon. The thick coated handling section is a game-changer during frigid Lake Erie or Muskegon River winter steelhead sessions, giving you a positive grip even with cold, wet hands. The ultra-thin nylon core shoots through guides effortlessly, letting you mend and control your swing far out across broad, glassy tailouts.
