Performance, Precision, and Value – RIO Avid Gold Floating Fly Line (WF3F, WF5F, WF6F)
Designed for trout anglers who want high-end performance without the premium price tag, the RIO Avid Gold Floating Fly Line is a go-to choice for versatile freshwater applications. Available in WF3F, WF5F, and WF6F, this line is tailored for everything from small dries to heavier nymph rigs—now in stock at Jacita Tackle Outdoor, South Africa’s trusted fly tackle outfitter.
The slightly heavier and shorter head design of the Avid Gold makes it easier to load modern fly rods—especially at close to medium distances—making it ideal for newer casters or those wanting more feel during the cast.
Built with RIO’s proprietary slick coating, the line shoots smoothly through guides and floats high for easy mending and improved drift control. It also features a subtle front taper for controlled, delicate presentations—ideal for wary trout in streams, rivers, and stillwaters.
