RIO Elite Scandi Launch Kit

Description

The RIO Elite Scandi Launch Kit is a complete, ready-to-fish system for anglers who want easy rod loading, efficient turnover and maximum adaptability on the river. It combines RIO's best-selling Scandi tapers with modern line technology, making it a practical choice for effortless casting and precise presentation with double-handed setups. At the heart of the kit is the Elite Scandi Launch head, built with a rear-loaded taper that concentrates weight in the D-loop. This produces smooth, powerful loading and a clean, controlled turnover, even in tight casting situations. The head is paired with an appropriately sized RIO Elite Metered Shooting Line, which aids distance management and tracking through its clearly marked sections. The low-stretch ConnectCore Plus core improves take detection and hook setting. The kit also includes three RIO VersiLeaders in intermediate, Sink 4 and Sink 6 sink rates, so depth can be adjusted quickly as conditions change, whether fishing deeper in the water column or slowing the swing in heavier flows. The line is finished with RIO's ultra-slick SlickCast coating for durability and consistent handling. - Elite Scandi Launch Shooting Head - Elite Metered Shooting Line - Three, 10ft RIO VersiLeaders: intermediate (1.5ips), Medium Sink (4ips) and Fast Sink (6ips) - Leader Wallet - Rear-loaded Scandi Launch Head for easy rod loading and graceful turnover - Metered shooting line for control and effective hook sets - Low-stretch ConnectCore Plus for the best in performance and smoothness - Built with RIO's exceptionally slick, durable SlickCast coating - Three VersiLeaders included for quick, on-the-water depth adjustment RIO Medium VersiLeader is suited to Scandi lines #8 and below, while RIO Heavy VersiLeader suits Scandi lines #9 and above.
