RIO Elite Scandi Outbound Switch Fly Line

The RIO Elite Scandi Outbound Switch is an exciting addition to RIO’s UK-specific Elite Outbound range, bringing a beloved taper to a whole new level of performance. This exceptional line is specifically designed for use with your favourite Switch rod and short double-handed rods (up to around 13’ maximum), offering unparalleled performance and effortless casting. It is the perfect choice for anglers who need a line that can excel in tight casting situations and deliver a fly with power and finesse.

The Scandi Outbound Switch features a floating short Scandi head that is seamlessly integrated with a running line. This design, with its classic, rear-loaded weight distribution, makes it an incredibly easy-casting line that loads quickly and effortlessly. It is a fantastic choice for anglers of all abilities, especially when fishing in tight quarters where a short head is crucial.

Built with RIO's new SlickCast coating, this line sets a new standard for slickness and durability. Lab tests have shown it to be the slickest line on the market, with 140% tougher coating than the next best technology. The reduced friction of SlickCast enables the line to shoot through the guides with less resistance, leading to longer, effortless casts and 33% more fishing time due to extended durability.

The line is built on a low-stretch ConnectCore Plus for the best in control, performance, and smoothness. This ultra-sensitive core allows you to detect even the slightest of takes, and its direct connection to your fly provides quicker reactions for more effective hook sets.

Designed to be used with RIO Medium VersiLeaders (available separately), this line gives you the flexibility to adapt to various fishing scenarios. The long front taper of the line unrolls with great efficiency and power, and its perfect pairing with a VersiLeader allows you to control the depth and speed of your presentation.

As part of the UK-specific Elite Outbound DH range, this line has been meticulously refined to excel on the types of waters found across the United Kingdom. It features a Loading Point marker to help you get the very best load out of the line and Easy Line Identifier Markings for quick management. This line is only available in the UK.

The RIO Elite Scandi Outbound Switch Fly Line is available in a range of line sizes for you to choose from and comes in a Dark Green/Orange/Straw colouration.
