RIO’s Avid series of sink tip fly lines were developed for the keen fly fisher with tapers and technology that enhance the fly fishing experience.

The lines have a 24ft long sink tip, and are designed for easy casting performance, with slightly heavier and shorter head lengths. Each line is built on a supple memory-free core, and has a super slick coating for easy distance. The lines are sold in "grain" weights, and we recommend the following conversion to appropriate rod sizes:

200gr = 6wt
250gr = 7wt
300gr = 8wt

Sink rates (inches per second):
200gr Black/Pale Yellow 5.5 ips
250gr Black/Pale Yellow 6.4 ips
300gr Black/Pale Yellow 7.3 ips
