Rio Tropical Series Tarpon Fly Line

A low-stretch, ultra-slick tarpon line built for quick shots and hard strip sets.

The Rio Tropical Series Tarpon Line is designed for anglers who demand fast, accurate casts in serious tarpon conditions. The taper turns over big, wind-resistant tarpon flies with ease and sets up clean second shots when fish change direction. A long back taper helps you stay in control, while the low-stretch DirectCore drives solid strip sets at distance. Finished with SlickCast coating and the SureFire tricolored measuring system, this line delivers smooth shooting and clear distance control in tropical heat.
