RIO Toothy Critter 3.0 Leaders

Ready-to-Fish Leaders for Toothy Species

The RIO Toothy Critter 3.0 Leaders are built for anglers targeting fish with sharp teeth and serious attitude. Designed as a convenient, ready-to-fish leader system, each leader combines a tapered nylon leader, Micro Swivel, knottable wire bite tippet, and RIO Twist Clip so you can rig quickly and get back to fishing.

Wire Bite Tippet Protection with No Knots Needed

Toothy Critter 3.0 Leaders make setup simple. Loop the leader onto your fly line, clip on your fly, and start fishing without tying complicated wire knots. The tough wire bite tippet helps protect against cutoffs, while the tapered nylon section provides the turnover needed to cast larger predator flies.
