23 May 2022  |  Sarah
Rio Products have been hard at work and launched an amazing amount of New Products!

Here we have a few to show you what is now available to order from ourselves!
Premier Midge Tip Fly Line
Any stillwater angler in the UK would be lost without a Midge Tip fly line, since their introduction Midge Tip lines have revolutionised stillwater fishing from either boat or shoreline. Once Midge Tips were introduced they provided anglers with a higher level of control and presentation never before provided by fully floating or sinking lines.
Rio Products have enhanced their original Midge Tip fly range and the new range offers increased versitility when it comes to landing more Trout. The new lines offer more in the way of presentation styles and the original 3ft sink tip at 1.5 IPS has a new slower sinking 1IPS dubbed the Hover range. Additionally a new long version is available with a 6ft tip!
Rio Products have improved every section of the Midge Tip range. Each line features SlickCast technology which is incredibly durable and provides a far longer lifespan of your line.
SlickCast also allows casting motion to be transferred more efficiently to achieve far greater distances with little effort.

Kinks in your line are now a nightmare of yonder past as the Midge Tip core is contructed on a cold water core which means the line stays almost fully memory free, no more freezing fingers.
Duel colour lines allow you to identify the head of the line and time your casts for greater distance and target accuracy.

Each Midge Tip line has a built in ID mark so you know exactly which line you are using and needing when searching through your tackle bag, so you have increased your fishing time.

Each line has Rio Products welded loops at both ends which also makes for more fishing time, some of the finest welded loops on the market.
 
Kahuna LT Strike Indicator
Rio Products Kahuna LT is an ingenious and subtle strike indicator made of a piece of high floating fly line with the core removed from the middle, leaving an empty tunnel.

Simply break off the required length of indicator and thread the leader though the tunnel.

Each packet contains a simple wire threader to make this easier.

The end result is an incredibly sensitive strike indicator that grips on to a tapered leader and stays in place without any damage to the leader.
Each packet contains 3, 1ft length of Kahuna LT in Chartreuse, Orange and White.

Use a waterproof marker to color the white indicator to any color you like.

.095" Thin is ideal for calm water and smaller flies.
.125" Thick is more visible in rougher water and lower light.
 
Braided Loops
A quick and easy way to attach the leader to a fly line or backing to the line.

These highest quality braided loops feature a double thickness of braid around the formed loop for superior strength and energy transfer.
Braided Loop Type Size Line Rating
Trout Regular 3-6
Salmon Large 7-12
Shooting Head Extra Large 500gr+
 
Tippet Rings
Rio Products Tippet Rings are small, very strong and lightweight, and make rigging and tippet replacement fast and easy. A leader with a tippet ring turns over perfectly, and they are light enough to use when fishing dry flies.

Simply tie the tippet ring to a leader with a clinch knot, then add the required tippet in the same way.

Tapered leaders last longer with a tippet ring as the leader will not be shortened every time you replace the tippet.

Rio Products Tippet Rings also make it extremely easy to add droppers, and are an excellent choice for European Style Nymphing and for Indicator nymph fishing.
