RIO SlickCast Gold XP Fly Lines Premier Trout Series | Weight-Forward | Floating
Half-Size Heavy / Extra Power
RIO Gold fly lines first took flight in 2008 – brought to life on the unmerciful testing grounds of Idaho's hard-earned Henrys Fork River. Hundreds of thousands of casts across endless miles of water later, the Gold Standard of multipurpose fly lines transformed the game by giving anglers the ability to transcend boundaries.
With a mid-length head and half-size heavy design, the Gold XP is different than the longer and lighter traditional Gold fly line. Arguably the most versatile taper in the Gold family lineup, the Gold XP adds 'extra power' and gives anglers the flexibility to cover the widest variety of techniques and casting distances, offering truly blended performance.
Thanks to its medium-long rear taper and a balanced body for improved turnover of indicators and nymphs, the Gold XP is at home sending drys at distance, running heavier rigs though deeper pools and making quick shots from drift boats. Still perfectly capable of delivering precise presentations with delicacy, the Gold XP's added weight makes the line fish and cast comfortably at shorter distances, typical when wading on smaller waters too.
