Product Details
RIO‘s shooting heads are based on the popular OutBound Short lines, and are designed to cast very long distances. The front loaded weight distribution quickly loads a rod, while the unique step down taper at the back allows for very long flight times and easy distance. The heads are built two sizes above the AFTM standard to correctly load modern rods - anglers do not need to step up a line size when choosing a line for their rod, as this is done in the design. Each head has an Easy ID loop at the back end for quick recognition.

The five densities available are -
  1. Full Floating Head (F)
  2. Full Hover 1 ips
  3. Clear intermediate
  4. Type 3 Sinking
  5. Type 6 Sinking

"Shooting head"

Michael Tucker on 8/24/2015 9:15:06 AM

Review: The line is supple with enough punch to carry the intruders I am throwing. Very impressed with the product. This head is connected to the 44lb. Slick shooter mono line. The combo. is deadly. This is my go to system when I'm shooting line for Chinook and the water is a little skinny and need to kick in the stealth mode. If you're not use to using mono, there is a learning curve but well worth it. Excellent service by the way. Had my product the same week as I ordered it. Thank you
