RIO MDC 18ft Sink Tips

The RIO MDC 18ft Sink Tips (Multi Density Control) are mid-length, individually packed sink tips. Designed to be added to the body of a wide range of VersiTip type fly lines and shooting heads. The tips have a gradual front taper that gives excellent presentation and turnover of the majority of salmon and sea trout flies. They feature a colour coded sleeve on the rear loop – making it easy for anglers to match the right tip to their chosen body, and to be able to quickly identify the size of the tip.

The main benefit these tips have over regular sink tips is the triple density coating, which makes the tip sink faster where it counts (closer to the fly), while providing the smoothest possible turnover of a sink tip. The triple density, 18ft tips are made with a 6ft length of each density, creating an even, smooth energy flow that is a massive benefit to easy, effortless casting, and great presentation.

There are two sizes of RIO MDC 18ft Sink Tips available: 7/8 (130gr) and 9/10 (150gr), and in five different density options: floating (single density), Float/Hover/Intermediate, Hover/Intermediate/Sink 3, Intermediate/Sink 3/Sink 5, and Sink 3/Sink 5/Sink 7. The intermediate section on the F/H/I is clear for added stealth.
