Rio's baby dad is like no other crayfish pattern you have seen. Though these can be fished all year round, this fly is especially productive in the late fall and winter, where hatches are minimal.
Rio's Fruit Strip is a new school take on a classic- the leech. The jigged head gives this fly that realistic, leech-like movement. Strip it, swing it, or throw it on a nymph rig.
Designed with lead eyes to jig along the bottom, the RIO's Muffin Top is a perfect all around warmwater bass fly and flood tide redfish fly. It has also proven as an effective fly in the California Delta for smallmouth and Puget Sound for saltwater perch.
The Zeppelin Caddis, with its detached bubbleshaped body and scratchy thorax, uniquely combines a low floating profile like an emerging pupa with great visibility and buoyancy, and it has cracked the code on fussy eaters.
This is a great drake pattern that gives you a large profile without a large hook, and tied with an extended abdomen. The parachute post allows the fly to sit lower on the water's surface.
The Staggered Stone takes a different approach, and closely resembles the orderly appearance and subtle colors of smaller stoneflies like Yellow Sallies.
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.
Searching for the universal shrimp imitation that both triggerfish and bonefish will eat readily, we ended up with this pattern that really fits the bill. With subtle flash and a muted, more natural tail, it is the perfect fly to not spook finicky fish.
For every few fish that want a baitfish, there's always one that wants a surface bug. The RIO's Gurgler Alarm is the ideal "do everything" pattern for that fish.
Designed initially for those on the east coast of Florida, this surface popping shrimp was a custom fly that turned into a much sought production pattern.
