Rio Classic Sink Tip 20ft

RIO Classic 20ft Sink Tips are purpose-built to extend and fine‑tune modern Scandi and Skagit setups on longer double‑handed rods from 15ft and up. At 20ft, these tapered tips add extra head length for better line control and mending at distance, while delivering smooth, controlled turnover of typical salmon and sea trout flies in a wide range of conditions. The gradual front tapers help you present flies with more finesse, whether you are swinging small doubles just under the surface or getting heavier tubes down in faster, deeper runs. The range covers Float, Intermediate, Sink 3, Sink 5 and Sink 7 options so you can match your tip to the river height and speed, with clear Intermediate models for a discreet setup in pressured or clear water. Two weight classes – #9+ (175gr) and the slightly heavier “Power” (200gr) – ensure a clean match to most modern Scandi and Skagit bodies, giving you the choice between a more delicate presentation or a stronger tip for larger flies and heavier water. Each tip features a colour‑coded rear sleeve (grey for #9+ and yellow for Power) for quick identification on the riverbank, plus RIO’s Easy ID marking so you always know what you’re fishing. Built on a SlickCast coating with front and back welded loops, these tips shoot easily, anchor cleanly and change over in seconds, making them a versatile, workhorse solution for anglers targeting salmon and sea trout throughout the season.
