Rio FIPS Euro Nymph Line
The Rio FIPS Euro Nymph line was designed by Steve Parrot to satisfy the need for a one-line-fits-all European-style nymphing line that is competition legal. The line is built on a thin diameter, low stretch, supple core to maximize sensitivity and allow for lightning fast hook sets, while a highly visible tip helps anglers detect the slightest of strikes. This line is specifically for European style nymphing techniques, such as French, Czech, Polish and Spanish styles. This line has been thoroughly vetted and approved by FIPS Mouche as Competition Legal. A system of special marks on the line has been endorsed and approved by FIPS Mouche, ensuring that competitive anglers do not have to waste valuable fishing time by having their line checked during competition hours.

I’ve used this line for several European nymphing sessions and it’s incredibly sensitive. The visible tip helps me detect even the smallest strikes. It performs well in both still and moving water, and the special markings save time during competitions.
Keith Henderson –
As a competitive angler, I appreciate that the line is FIPS approved and doesn’t need to be checked during events. The low stretch and supple core make hook sets quick and accurate. Works perfectly with French and Polish nymphing setups.
Kevin Randall –
The line is very thin and feels responsive. I noticed a clear tip that helps with strike detection. A bit more expensive than standard lines, but worth it for competition use.
