Rio Premier Gold Max

Description

At a full-size heavy, the Gold Max is RIO’s most powerful all-around taper for delivering hard-to handle rigs that get bites in fisheries not centered around long leaders and tiny dries. With the shortest head length in the Gold class, the Max is a purpose-built full-size heavy line for smoothly loading weightier and unwieldy payloads. The short head carries more weight toward the back of the body so anglers can turn over heavier rigs much more efficiently, while the shorter front taper combined with tapered body allows bulky dries to still be delivered with finesse. The short back taper combined with a rear-loaded body makes for incredible roll casting of heavier rigs while also making it easier to mend at distance. For powerful versatility, the rear-loaded Max bridges the gap between both worlds, giving anglers plus-size power to deliver more weight under control while also allowing for presentations decidedly cleaner than overly front-loaded configurations.

This line is built with RIO’s low-stretch ConnectCore Plus, resulting in incredible levels of sensitivity when casting and fishing – providing enhanced detection of takes, faster hook sets, and far greater control when playing a fish. In addition, this line is built with SlickCast, RIO’s proprietary coating technology, creating the slickest, most durable fly lines on the market. Lab tests show that lines built with SlickCast have the least amount of friction ever measured in a fly line.

• Compact and powerful, the Short Head and Full Size Heavy weight efficiently carries heavier flies and rigs with ease.
• Short Rear Taper for easier shooting on longer distance casts.
• Rear-Loaded Body turns over heavier rigs more smoothly than an aggressive, front-loaded design and makes for easy roll casting and mending of the entire head.
• Short Front taper for more powerful turnover for heavier flies and indicator rigs.
• DualTone- Marks the sweet spot of a fly line by providing an obvious color change in the line at the sweet spot.
• EasyID – RIO’s printed line marking system that allows anglers to quickly and easily identify each line.
• Front Welded Loop- A neat, bulletproof loop welded at the front of the fly line for fast rigging.
• Back Welded Loop – A neat, bulletproof loop welded at the end of the fly line for fast rigging to backing.
