RIO INTOUCH 15FT REPLACMENT TIP – Your Premium Fishing Gear Store Rods Lines Baits Accessories* Fishing Line

15ft replacement tips for VersiTip and Skagit lines.

These tips are 15ft long, and have a steady front taper of about 3ft, which allows for good presentation of a fly. Each tip has a color coded loop at the rear, and is printed with the tip size. Attach the printed end to the fly line. The tips are built on RIO’s ultra-low stretch ConnectCore for the maximum in sensitivity and performance, and are density compensated at the front end (not the intermediate) for the best fishing performance.

Technology Highlights:

Front Loop

A neat, bullet-proof welded loop on the front end for fast rigging.

Back Loop

A neat, bullet-proof welded loop on the rear end for fast rigging.

Front Loop

Easy ID loops are neat, printed loops that show the size and type of the shooting head.

ConnectCore

When you rely on touch to know whats going on in the depths, line stretch is the enemy.

ConnectCore lines open up new worlds of perception and sensitivity with ultra-low stretch performance. Soft, subtle takes become positive grabs, and without stretch to dull reaction times, hook sets are instant and sure. ConnectCore. The secret weapon for success.

Density Compensated

The majority of modern fly lines feature a taper at the front end, which ensures that they cast smoothly and land on the water without too much impact. With sinking lines and sink tips, this taper creates a small problem; as the line gets thinner the amount of coating on it gets less.

The coating is what makes a fly line sink, so as the coating is reduced, the sink rate slows down. Usually this means a tapered sinking line sinks in a curve – with the thicker, heavier and denser body section sinking faster than the tip – not good for controlling the depth, and especially not good for detecting atake, or setting the hook. RIOs Density Compensation adds a more dense material to the thin tip, which ensures the line sinks straight – better for knowing when a fish takes the fly, and far better for setting the hook. All RIOs premium tapered sinking lines and sink tips are Density Compensated.
