RIO Elite Xtreme Indicator Fly Line
An incredibly advanced nymphing line, ideal for fishing indicators out of a boat.
The Xtreme Indicator line has been designed to be a very effective tool for anglers that fish nymphs and indicators out of a boat. The short head has a powerful front taper that casts indicator rigs with ease, and loads up with a single cast. Built with RIO’s low-stretch ConnectCore Plus, the line allows for intuitively better cast timing, easier line lifts and sharp, precise mends. Lack of stretch also means faster reaction time when setting the hook.

Leonard Quinn –
I’ve been using this line for boat nymphing and it’s made a big difference in my casting. The short head loads quickly and the line feels solid under the rod. I can see the indicator move clearly and set the hook faster than before.
Diane Peake –
Great for indicator fishing from a boat. The low stretch helps with precision and I don’t have to worry about the line stretching during a take. The cast is smooth and I can mend quickly.
Matt Pullman –
It performs well for nymphing with indicators. The head design is easy to load, though I wish it had a bit more flexibility for different rig types.
