Get Deep. Stay Deep. Trigger the Grab.
When big predators move into deep water, getting your fly down is only half the battle. Keeping it in the strike zone throughout the retrieve is where the RIO Elite Predator Deep F/S3/S5/S7 Fly Line truly shines.
Unlike traditional Predator lines that feature a shorter sinking tip, the entire head of the Predator Deep sinks, creating a continuous sinking system designed for deep runs, drop-offs, and structure where the biggest fish often hold. The head is evenly divided between Type 7, Type 5, and Type 3 sinking densities, creating a controlled sink profile that gets large flies down quickly while maintaining a natural retrieve angle.
Designed for streamer anglers who refuse to fish the upper water column, this line makes previously difficult-to-reach water more accessible. Whether you're targeting giant trout holding in deep buckets, aggressive pike around structure, or freshwater predators lurking below, the Predator Deep gives you the depth and control needed to stay connected.
A short, powerful front taper makes casting large, weighted streamers easier, while RIO's low-stretch ConnectCore Plus technology improves sensitivity, hook sets, and overall casting performance. Finished with RIO's ultra-slick SlickCast coating and SureFire tricolored measuring system, this line provides the durability, smooth shooting, and distance control serious streamer anglers demand.
