Rio DC (Density Compensated) Sink Tip

Density Compensated (DC) 10 ft and (DC) 15 ft Sinking Tip Fly Lines The sink tip line of choice for nymph and streamer fishing. The lines are designed with a balanced length of thick floating body to eliminate the “hinge” or kick during the casting stroke.

Density compensation stops the problem of sinking tips from sinking in a curve; the tip sinks at the same speed as the body to get the fly down for more strikes and better strike detection. These lines are available with a new 10 ft DC sink tip or the standard DC 15 ft sinking tip, and, for 2009, both lines feature RIO's XS Technology. 10 ft: Type 6 WF5F/S - WF9F/S Length: 90 ft (27.4 m); Color: Green with black sinking tip 15 ft: Type 3 WF4F/S - WF8F/S Type 4 WF5F/S - WF8F/S Type 6 WF6F/S - WF9F/S Length: 90 ft (27.4 m); Color: Yellow with black sinking tip
