RIO Premier Gold XP Fly Line

Introducing the RIO Premier Gold XP Fly Line, one of the most powerful options in the Gold lineup. The mid head length and half-size heavy design makes for easy casting with both weighted flies whilst still allowing for a delicate delivery with smaller dries and nymphs.

With a mid-length head and half-size heavy design, the Gold XP combines extra casting power with finesse, excelling across various techniques and casting distances. Its thoughtfully balanced tapering offers exceptional line control at longer distances and a robust yet smooth turnover for nymphs, indicators, and dries.

Engineered with a mid-length head and half-size heavy taper, the Gold XP finds a perfect balance between power and adaptability. The extra weight helps quickly load the rod for shorter, accurate casts, while the mid-length head makes it easy to carry line for extended casts.

The mid-length 5-foot 6-inch front taper shared with its RIO Gold sibling is engineered for ultimate versatility. This design lets anglers handle heavier rigs with authority while maintaining the finesse to delicately present dries and emergers.

Designed with RIO’s exclusive ConnectCore Plus technology, the Gold XP offers superior sensitivity during casting and fishing. The low-stretch core amplifies take detection, allowing anglers to react faster, set hooks more securely, and control fish with confidence.

RIO’s SlickCast technology creates an ultra-smooth, low-friction surface, enabling the Gold XP to cast further with less effort. In lab tests, SlickCast has proven to have the lowest friction of any fly line, making it incredibly durable and smooth, even after extended use.

DualTone technology provides a colour change at the line’s “sweet spot,” helping anglers instantly identify the best loading point. This feature makes it easy to optimise every cast with accuracy and control.

RIO’s EasyID marking system lets you quickly identify the line type, preventing any setup confusion and allowing you to organise multiple rods seamlessly.

Strong, welded loops at both ends of the Gold XP make rigging fast, secure, and simple. These loops allow for easy leader and backing attachment, ensuring a reliable setup with smooth, unhindered casting.

The RIO Premier Gold XP Fly Line is available in a range of line weights for you to choose from in our drop down menu and they come in a Moss/Electric Green colouration.
