RIO Mainstream Series Bass Fly Line is a weight forward floating line designed and developed for the new to intermediate level fly angler looking for a quality line at an affordable price. RIO MainStream Bass Fly Lines are individually designed and optimized for each fly rod size. This line features a short front taper to easily load the rod and turn over big flies. The shorter heads, tapers, running line and a slight increase in weight allow the rod to load with less line out, creating effortless casts. Each line is crafted with a supple core and a self-lubricating, warmwater coating that will not wilt in the heat.

Nice line
Line Shoots well but a little stiff. Srill shooting well after 4 trips without a cleaning.

Good Line
I have used Rio's Mainstream trout series line before and was very pleased with it so I thought that I would give this a shot. I bought it from Bean a few months back and have used it quite a bit and I am thoroughly satisfied. I always use a loop to loop connection for my line to leader so I wish that there was a welded loop on this line like the mainstream trout line had, but the perfection loop is working fine. I'm using it in an 8 weight for primarily river smallmouth bass and I have no complaints. Casts big and heavy flies great and is easy to handle and it floats well.
