Rio Premier 24ft Sink Tip
A series of sinking tip lines specifically built for anglers that like a balanced casting rig. A unique, fatter body section eliminates the “kick” usually associated with casting sink tip lines; while the longer front tapers ensure the line does not dump on the forward cast. The supple floating body section allows anglers to easily mend and control the way the fly fishes, making it ideal for river anglers. Each line has a welded loop on the front end for easy rigging.

This sink tip performs much better than expected. The kick is almost gone, and the line casts smoothly even in windy river conditions. The welded loop makes setting up the rig quick and easy. I’ve used it for several days on a trout stream and it holds up well.

Great for river fishing. The line doesn’t dump on the forward cast, and the floating section helps with mending. A bit heavier than standard sink tips, but the control is worth it. SlickCast coating feels smooth and doesn’t snag on rocks.

I switched from a regular sink tip to this one and noticed a big difference in casting feel. The balance is excellent, and the line stays stable during long casts. Very satisfied with the performance and durability.
