Saltwater Tropical Floating/Intermediate Fly Line w/ Clear Aqualux® Sink Tip by RIO
Florida Bonefish can be the spookiest of all gamefish and often times inhabit water depths exceeding 4 feet. RIO's Florida Bonefish line has a 9ft intermediate sinking tip that's clear and when matched with a standard 9ft leader gives you the stealth to reach any skettish Bonefish.
It's also a great popper line for other species...the tip sinks slowly so your poppers gurgle instead of fruitlessly skipping across the water.

The Saltwater Tropical F/I line is built on a medium stiff Powerflex core that is extremeley easy to anneal (stretch).
The line features a floating tropical coating with a 9.5 ft clear intermediate tip for deeper flats.
The Clouser taper is perfect for casting into a fifteen-knot breeze.
Sounds unbelievable, but this line will turn over a 12 ft - 15 ft leader in a strong wind.
A 9 ft leader attached to the clear AquaLux tip gives you an effective 18 foot leader, which is stealthy enough for any wary fish.
Your guide can still follow the fly at this length, while a totally clear line is really tough to track.
Florida bonefish are normally found in deeper waters of two to four feet. With the 9.5 ft clear sinking AquaLux® intermediate tip, you will get your fly down to the bonefish.

- Medium length front taper to improve turnover without sacrificing presentation
- A slightly longer back taper to smooth out the casting loop
- A hard coating combined with a medium stiff single strand monofilament core results in longer casts and a line that holds up to heat even in the most extreme tropical conditions
