It looks like you’re referring to the RIO Premier Technical Trout fly line in the Blue/Peach color option. Here’s a quick overview of this line:
RIO Premier Technical Trout Fly Line (Blue/Peach)
– Purpose: Designed for precise trout fishing with delicate presentations, ideal for dry flies, nymphs, and small streamers.
– Taper: Features RIO’s “Technical Trout” taper—a longer front taper for softer landings and a reinforced rear taper for better turnover.
– Weight: True-to-weight (e.g., 5-weight is a true 5-weight) for accuracy in casting.
– Core: AGS (Advanced Shooting Technology) core for low memory and smooth shooting.
– Coating: Slick, durable coating with X Technology for reduced friction and longer casts.
– Colors:
– Blue (front 30ft) for visibility.
– Peach (running line) for low glare and stealth.
– Sizes Available: Typically ranges from 2 to 6 weights.
– Best For:
– Spring creeks, technical dry-fly fishing.
– Small to medium rivers where presentation matters.
– Anglers who prefer a refined, controlled casting experience.
Why Choose This Line?
– Delicate Presentations: The extended taper minimizes splashdown.
– Versatility: Works well with dry-dropper rigs and light nymphing setups.
– Durability: High-quality materials resist cracks and wear.
If you’re targeting wary trout in clear water, this is an excellent choice. Pair it with a balanced rod (like a fast or medium-fast 9′ 5wt) for optimal performance.
