Rio Premier Tarpon Clear Tip Floater Fly Line
Rio’s Premier Tarpon Clear Tip Floater Fly Line features ten feet of gin-clear floating line at the tip, eliminating the need for a long, cumbersome leader. This allows the angler to cast flies closer to the target without spooking the fish. The subtle seafoam head color behind the clear tip helps the angler and guide track the location of the fly throughout the retrieve. Built with Rio’s classic tarpon taper, this fly line combines a mid-length head and a short, powerful front taper, designed to efficiently cast typical tarpon flies. This unique design makes quick casts to moving fish easy while also enabling longer shots when you need to reach out to distant fish on the flats. This line includes 2 x Rio Fly Line Cleaning Towelettes in the box.

This fly line made a big difference in my tarpon fishing. The clear tip lets me cast close without spooking the fish, and the seafoam head color helps me see where the fly is. Easy to use and reliable on the flats.

I’ve used several fly lines before, but this one stands out. The floating tip is smooth and the cast is quick. The included cleaning towelettes are handy and keep the line in good shape.

Great for targeting moving fish. The design allows for both short, precise casts and longer reaches. I noticed the seafoam color helps me track the fly better during retrieves.
