The RIO Perception is the best all-around fly line on smaller rivers and lakes.

The RIO PERCEPTION is an easy casting, general purpose fly line that casts nymphs, dry flies, streamers and soft hackles with ease. The short head makes this a particularly good line on smaller rivers and lakes when long distance line control is not necessary.

This line is built with SlickCast, RIO's proprietary coating technology, which creates the slickest, most durable fly lines on the market. Lab tests show that lines built with SlickCast have the least amount of friction ever measured in a fly line. In addition, the line features MaxFloat Tip Technology, RIO's proprietary tip coating formula that floats more than twice as high as regular line tips, without any increase in diameter.

Easy casting all-around trout line with ultra-slick performance.

  • Easy casting taper design for great all-around performance
  • Shorter head length for quick loading and ideal on smaller rivers and lakes
  • Built with RIO's exceptionally slick, durable SlickCast
  • EasyID on front and Back taper for fast line recognition

Performed great

I had a 5WTF line that just didn’t seem to work right. Ok, was probably 4 or 5 years old, and showing some wear. The folks at Golden Fly Shop was a RIO line, and they were nice enough to take the old line off, inspect the backing, and put the new line on.

First cast on the Poudre proved this was the right line. Felt like a new rod! Second cast took a nice brown who took an ant as soon as it landed in the foam line.

Thanks, guys!
