Description
RIO's Elite Permit is a floating fly line built around an easy-casting taper that loads at close range, paired with a long back taper for fast second-shot casts. The front taper and weight distribution are designed to give soft presentations that won't spook wary permit, while still carrying enough weight to cast typical crab patterns. The line is built on RIO's low-memory DirectCore, which stretches easily and lies straight on the water while retaining the stiffness needed to cast in hot conditions. It also uses SlickCast, RIO's slick and durable coating, which produces very low friction. - Easy casting taper that presents typical crab patterns gently - Long back taper for fast, 2nd shot casts - Low stretch "DirectCore" for hard, solid strip sets - Built with RIO's exceptionally slick, durable SlickCast coating - SureFire - RIO's triple color line marking system that makes it easy to gauge distances and load, with a quick glance. - EasyID - RIO's printed line marking system that allows anglers to quickly and easily identify each line. - Front Welded Loop - A neat, bulletproof loop welded at the front of the fly line. - Back Welded Loop - A neat, bulletproof loop welded at the end of the fly line for fast rigging to backing.
