RIO Elite Switch Chucker Fly Line

Versatile Switch & Trout Spey

From trout to steelhead, the Switch Chucker has long been an industry standard for indicator fishing with switch rods. The OG when it comes to fishing switch rods and indicators. Those who know understand how effective it is when indicator fishing for steelhead and salmon. This line was specifically designed for this purpose and turns over even the heaviest nymph rigs with ease.

A true do-it-all switch line: loads quickly, roll casts effortlessly, overhead casts smoothly, and turns over indicators, small tips, or streamers without drama. Ideal when your day mixes nymphing, swinging, and the occasional overhead shot.

RIO offers two types of switch lines: a long head Switch Line and the short, easy-loading Switch Chucker. Each line features an integrated head and running line, eliminating loop-to-loop connections passing through the guides. The Switch Line is ideal for anglers who want maximum control at distance, while the Chucker excels for close-range fishing and easy casting of big flies, sinking tips, and indicator rigs. Built with RIO's ultra-low stretch ConnectCore Technology.
