RIO XL Streamer Leader

The RIO XL Streamer Leader is purpose-built for anglers targeting big fish with large, wind-resistant streamers. Engineered for performance, this leader features a medium-stiff nylon butt section that generates maximum turnover power, ensuring even the heaviest flies are delivered with precision.

At the tippet end, an 18-inch Fluoroflex Strong tippet section offers exceptional clarity, strength, and abrasion resistance, making it perfect for handling aggressive strikes and rough underwater terrain. A RIO Micro Swivel is strategically tied between the butt and tippet, reducing line twist and enabling quick tippet replacements or length adjustments, so you spend more time fishing and less time rigging.

The short 4-foot length is designed to pair seamlessly with sink tip fly lines, helping to get your fly down quickly to the strike zone. Whether you're fishing for trophy trout, bass, or other predators, the RIO XL Streamer Leader delivers the power, durability, and ease of use you need for a successful day on the water.
