RIO Gold fly lines first took flight in 2008 – brought to life on the unmerciful testing grounds of Idaho’s hard-earned Henry’s Fork River. Hundreds of thousands of casts across endless miles of water later, the Gold Standard of multipurpose fly lines transformed the game by giving anglers the ability to transcend boundaries.The newly minted lines in RIO’s expanded Gold lineup run on a similar guiding principle: That the perfect multipurpose fly line empowers you to do more in the places you fish most. And because no region, water-type or fly box is the same, Gold Series now includes three distinct line classes – XP, MAX and Classic Gold each driven by intentional designs and thoughtful payload distributions that play to the go to applications that define your everyday experiences on the water.
With a mid-length head and half-size heavy design, GOLD XP is the most versatile taper in the GOLD lineup. The added “extra power” relative to classic GOLD gives it the flexibility to excel across the widest variety of techniques and casting lengths, offering truly blended performance. Thanks to its medium-long rear taper and a balanced body for improved turnover of indicators and nymphs, GOLD XP is at home sending drys at distance, running heavier rigs though deeper pools and making quick shots from drift boats. GOLD XP is still perfectly capable of delivering precise, delicate presentations, while its added weight makes the line fish and cast comfortably at shorter distances, typical of wading on smaller waters.
Choose RIO ELITE GOLD XP for Extra Power + Extra Versatility.
• Mid-length head and half-size heavy weight balances the ability to carry line against quickly loading the rod for shorter casts

• Balanced body with ample power at the front to turn over the widest range of rigs, plus enough rear power to load rods more deeply for short- to mid-length shots
