AquaLux Intermediate

A must-have line for the serious lake angler. Castability has always been a problem with clear intermediate sinking lines because there are no lubricants in the coating and the lines drag through the guides. RIO has solved the problem by incorporating proprietary lubricants and XS technology (new for 2009) into the running line coating that make the line slick. The running line is translucent green while the head is completely clear. With an intermediate sinking rate of 1.5 – 2.0 inches per second (3.7 cm/s), the line is perfect for fishing subsurface and shallow shore lines. Ideal when stealth is required for wary, selective fish. Made on a low memory supple monofilament core with a coldwater coating and welded loop on the front end.

WF3I - WF8I; Length: 100 ft (30.5 m)
Color: Clear AquaLux head with green tint running line

Deep 3, Deep 4 & Deep 6

A series of sinking lines that feature an increase in density at the front to ensure the line sinks tip first - aiding in bite detection and in setting the hook. These lines are made on a supple core for memory free performance and have a super smooth, tungsten impregnated coating that makes distance casting easy. An essential line for the serious lake fly fisher. The WF4S and WF5S, Type 6 lines are made on a Powerflex core.

Deep 3: WF4S to WF8S ~ 3-4 inches per second
Deep 4: WF4S to WF8S ~ 4-5 inches per second
Deep 6: WF4S to WF9S ~ 6-7 inches per second

Length: 90 ft (27.4m)

Deep 7™

This full sinking fly line was developed for the expert competition reservoir “buzzer” or chironomid anglers in the United Kingdom who need to get their flies down deep and fast. The Deep 7, built on an ultra thin single-strand monofilament core, is one of the fastest and most durable sinking lines in the world. It gets flies down deep and generates high line speed. North American anglers find it useful fishing in waters such as the Kamloops area of British Columbia or the desert lakes of the U.S. The Deep 7 is created for a 7 weight fly rod, but can be used on 5 – 8 weight.

Deep 7: WF7S ~ 7 - 9 ips (17.8 cm/s - 20.3 cm/s)
Length: 100 ft (30.5 m)
Color: Black
