RIO Mainstream Bass / Pike Fly Line

The RIO Mainstream Bass / Pike Fly Line is a fantastic choice for novice and average fly fishers, designed to meet the overall needs of anglers targeting aggressive species. This line is engineered to optimise rod performance with a slightly heavier and shorter head, providing a seamless blend of easy casting, excellent turnover, and durability. It’s the perfect, high-quality entry point into the exciting world of bass and pike fishing.

The Mainstream line is built with a slightly heavier weight and a shorter head length. This design helps to load the rod quickly and efficiently, making it incredibly easy to cast and perfect for new anglers. The added weight and short profile are ideal for delivering big, air-resistant flies with confidence.

The line features a short, powerful front taper that is specifically designed for excellent presentation and turnover. This powerful taper easily handles large streamers, poppers, and other bulky flies that are necessary for chasing bass and pike, ensuring your fly gets to the target with authority.

This line is built with a warm water coating over a supple, memory-free core. This specialised coating prevents the line from wilting in hot conditions, ensuring it remains slick and tangle-free. The supple core also provides a better feel and less coiling, making for a more enjoyable fishing experience.

Every Mainstream line is made in RIO's Idaho manufacturing facility and undergoes the same rigorous production processes and quality control standards as all of their premium fly lines. This commitment to quality ensures you're getting a dependable, high-performance product that will last.

The RIO Mainstream Bass / Pike Fly Line is available in a range of line sizes for you to choose from in our drop down menu and comes in a yellow colouration.
