![]() This fly line is very impressive, and I would recommend it. I was able to cast this line into tight spots landed quite a few trout on the dry fly. On one occasion, the trout started looking up, and I spent an afternoon fishing a size 14 parachute adams using this fly line. ![]() I cast streamers and heavy flies with ease during the time on the water. Hook sets also seemed to be better.while impossible to truly quantify, it seemed as though I lost fewer fish on the hook set, which would be due to the low/no stretch core.Ĭolor different between the body and running line. Time spent with this line verified these claims as accurate, as I noticed that the line seemed more "connected" to the rod and the reel. Rio says that this line contains an ultra-low stretch core for easier line lift, more precise mends, and better cast timing. The In Touch RIO Grand line is one full line size heavier than the industry standard, which I really appreciated in my fast action rod. I was able to get more distance, and more accuracy by noting the different sections of the line as they flew through the guides. While casting the line at distance on the Gunnison, I found it extremely helpful to note the different colors when loading the rod. This intrigued me, since I am a "feel" caster, and not very technical. This fly line uses different colors to indicate the different parts of the line, including the front taper, the body, and the running line. There are two loop connectors on each end, and the colors are bright and visible. The line has several features that I liked immediately. I was looking for a line to use for this year's trip, and discovered the RIO In Touch RIO Grand WF6. When I fish a fast action rod, I like to use a fly line that is a bit heavier so that I can load the rod to take advantage of it's capabilities. This requires that I get my fast action Sage VPX 6 weight out of the bag when fishing big water in pursuit of the large trout and salmon. The primary objective of the annual Gunnison trip is to catch big fish.
