Rio Products Are My Go To

When setting up new Fly Reels, backing is the safety valve for a strong fish making a long run. I only use Rio Backing for this important first step.

I Prefer Another Name Brand

I thought because this was a name brand it would mean better quality. I was wrong, severs areas were so thin, I had to cut and tie together using a blood knot. I will not use this brand again.

Backing Is Backing

But, getting enough of it in one unbroken string is sometimes a problem. Rio offers their backing in 300 yard spools which is why I purchased this product and I could get it locally and didn't have to wait for a mail order delivery

Good Quality

The backing for a new fly line (had to purchase from DSG online) was exactly what I needed to be ready fro an upcoming trip to fish some of Colorado's best trout waters. It is the correct weight and length to back up the new Rio "Grand" WF6F for the trip in early October.

Good Product Quality, But Pricey...

I have use this backing for my Rio fly lines for 15 years or more and been very satisfied. In the past, however, I bought the line in bulk spools of 300 yards, which was considerably cheaper on a per-yard basis. As a general comment, I've been disappointed to see Dick's carrying so few fly fishing products. Sort of forces us fly fishers to buy online or from specialty fly shops.
