The foundation of a Scandi shooting head system. The RIO Elite Scandi Body is a long, smooth-tapered head built for Scandinavian-style casting — the touch-and-go presentation that lays a long line out quietly with a light fly.
Scandi casting rewards a smooth, progressive taper, and this body delivers it. Run it on its own for a floating presentation, or add a polyleader or VersiLeader to change depth without changing the whole head. It's the modular approach: one body, several sink options, and a single system that covers a full day of changing water.

Grain weight matters more than line number on a two-hander. Give Ed's Fly Shop a call in Montrose and we'll match the body to your rod.
