Rio Knotless 12 ft 5x Trout Leader

Trout Knotless Tapered Leaders Each RIOTM Powerflex® knotless tapered leader is designed for superb abrasion resistance as well as high knot and tensile strength. The long butt design provides smooth turnover while the supple tippet gives the fly lifelike presentation. The graduated tapers have corresponding stepped butt diameters. Tapers are made with thick butts to turn over heavy flies and thinner butts for smaller flies. RIO knotless leaders have a high tech "best maximum pull" ratio to orient the molecules in a linear chain. This means that RIO's leaders return to their original taper after a fight. The light gray color is the most neutral and integrates visually with any background for perfect camouflage. All RIO trout tapered leaders have Perfection Loops tied in the butt section to facilitate changing leaders.
