Rio Fluoroflex Saltwater Tippet

Rio Fluoroflex Saltwater Tippet isn't just another tippet; it's your invisible connection to wary saltwater predators. When fooling keen-eyed fish in clear water is paramount, this fluorocarbon material delivers the stealth required for success.

This tippet excels in situations demanding maximum stealth and durability. It's ideal for presenting flies to easily spooked species like bonefish, permit, and tarpon on shallow flats where sunlight penetration makes lines highly visible. The inherent properties of fluorocarbon make it nearly disappear underwater, reducing refusals from sharp-sighted fish.

Beyond the flats, its exceptional abrasion resistance makes it a reliable choice when fishing around structure like coral, mangroves, or oyster beds. It also provides the toughness needed for battling powerful bluewater species where chafing on rough jaws or bills can compromise standard tippets. Rio Fluoroflex Saltwater Tippet provides confidence whether targeting finicky inshore feeders or offshore bruisers.
