Orange Tip Nymph Fly Line by RIO
RIO has developed a Nymph Line with a beefed up front section that will cast heavy beadhead nymphs and fluffy terrestrials like never before. The Blaze Orange tip functions as a great strike indicator that floats high and signals the lightest take.
Color: Camo Green with Orange Tip. Weights: 4wt, 5wt, 6wt

Color:  Camo
Note: A short front taper and front loaded weight distribution makes this line a "no brainer" choice for casting heavy nymphs or indicators. The built in indicator on the front tip also is a great boon to the more subtle nymphing approaches.

NYMPH Fly Line - High Floating - Indicator Tip - NEW
|
|
Use the RIO Nymph line for nymph fishing under all fishing conditions, whether indicator, high stick or dead
drift nymphing and terrestrials. Rated number one by Western professional guides for deep nymphing using
strike indicators and long drag free drifts. The taper design, with both a long back taper and body for easy roll
casting, mending and fly control, enhances casting weighted nymphs, indicators and big air-resistant flies.
RIO’s new high floatation technology creates a super high floating tip that stays up under normal conditions.
This high visibility tip is a built-in strike indicator which can be cut off without affecting the casting
performance. The Nymph line has welded loops on both ends for easy rigging and fast leader
changes.

John Barr on the Nymph Line
“Nymphing on rivers requires a blend of functions from a fly line. You have to have a
long back taper for mending and roll casting. You need most of the weight at the front
end and a pretty short taper to turn over heavy flies and indicators and you need the line
tip to float. All this you get with Rio’s Nymph line. An added advantage is the foot and a
half long bright red, high floating tip that can be used as an indicator in its own right.
The AgentX process is a Quantum leap in line design. It really makes the line incredibly
slick, super buoyant and ensures my line tip stays floating all the time - a vital factor in
my nymphing success.”

This line can be used with many fly fishing techniques, such as:
- Drifting nymphs and egg patterns with indicators when fishing for steelhead and
salmon; casting terrestrials and other big bugs, hoppers, stoneflies or streamers; upstream
nymphing with bead heads and other weighted flies, as well as high stick nymphing
- New Zealand’s South Island, where the angler has to cast into the strong downstream
NW Canterbury winds of 30 mph (50 kph) and still get a good turnover
- NZ’s Tongariro nymph technique, where the angler overhead or roll
casts long distances with indicators and flies
- Czech nymphing where the highly visible tip makes the slightest
“stop” of the line very noticeable to the angler
