Tippet Rings are small, very strong and lightweight, and make rigging and tippet replacement fast and easy. A leader with a tippet ring turns over perfectly, and they are light enough to use when fishing dry flies.
Simply an imitation or the real deal? You'd never know because RIO's MorrishFluttering Stone is downright tantalizing—and not just to trout. It's hard for us to take our eyes off this pattern.
This fly is tied on a barbless jig hook and has a mottled tungsten bead to look as natural as possible, with black wing pads offer a striking contrast to the body color. This has proven to be one of the most effective caddis pupa patterns.
RIO Products is located in Idaho Falls, in SE Idaho. The company was founded in 1990 by Jim Vincent and was sold to Far Bank Enterprises in 2005 (Far Bank also owns the fly fishing brands of Sage and Redington).
RIO has approximately 75 full time employees. A large percentage of employees are passionate fly fishers, traveling the world in pursuit of their hobby, and their experiences and product testing opportunities are a major factor in RIO's success. All fly lines are made with great pride in the US at the manufacturing facility in Idaho Falls.
