Overview
Covering water with long casts is the name of the game when it comes to fishing big indicators on lakes. The added power and reach of switch rods allow anglers to fish further out. With its rear loaded body, the Lake Chucker is the perfect line for this technique, producing deep loading D-loops, long roll-casts, and easier mending at distance. Coming in 6wt, 7wt, and 8wt configurations, the Lake Chucker's fully integrated design removes any confusion about rigging with a two-handed rod and generates smooth, uninterrupted retrieves while bringing fish to the net.
Pyramid Fly Co. has been a RIO partner since our inception. We deal with heavy winds, strong currents, and big indicator rigs, so a line that can defeat these roadblocks, while still being user friendly, is of utmost importance. We put over 20,000 client hours in every season with RIO lines, resulting in the ultimate collaboration to bring you a line that will undoubtedly be the finest switch indicator line you have ever fished.

Perfect for Pyramid Lake
"If you are seeking the perfect line to match up with your switch rod to fish Pyramid Lake, look no further. This line loads any switch rod and ensure your bobber & rig are pitched out over the edges of the lake. I have had years of success with this line and won’t fish the ‘mid with anything else."

THIS IS THE LINE OF CHOICE FOR PYRAMID AND OTHER TROPHY FISH STILLWATERS
"This line was designed for implementation in environments with big water, big wind, big fish, and to turn over bobber rigs with ease. I can understand that it falls out of spec when aligned with standards set in an industry that doesn't take all waters into consideration. Pyramid lake is a beast, and where it can be fished so many different ways, this is the standard at which we play by. We fish hard, 9 months out of the year, and often have to reach cruisers out to 80+ feet from shore. . . so this was the design integrated into this line. A staff of 6 long time Pyramid anglers put COUNTLESS hours into this with the RIO team and we are proud of this line. You don't have to like it, it can fall out of alignment with some status quo standards. . . but we WIN with this line and so do our clients. We are always happy to help out folks with questions on this line, hit us up!!"

Great line for the lake!
"I like the line and the product. I was disappointed that I couldn’t get the 8 weight line that I ordered due to inventory issues. Then I had to call to request a refund. I should have been contacted."

Rio Lake Chucker 6 wt.
"As a FFI Master Two-Handed casting instructor I purchased this line for clients prepping to go fish Pyramid Lake--the lake this line was designed for. I put the line on a Sage One 11'6", 6 wt two-hander and the 33', 580+ grains over-loaded the rod (normally I use a 420 Scandi and 450 Skagit which are perfect). Still I worked with a new client and son with this outfit a few days before they left to fish Pyramid Lake. They were able to work with the line and roll cast it and by using a Perry Poke shoot some line adequately. I just got off the phone with them and, while they did use Pyramid Fly Co. as their guides, they did not use this line. They used Switch Chuckers instead: 7 wt. , 25' and 465 grains on Echo two-handed 7 wt. rods which they balanced nicely. They were pleased at how much easier these lines cast, shoot and present than the Lake Chucker line advertised by Rio and Pyramid Fly Co. I get it, you add almost 10 feet to an existing line and the grain weight will go up. But calling it a 6 wt. when it is way out of AFFTA standards is silly. Either Pyramid Fly Co. does not have enough Lake Chuckers to go around for their clients, or they have discovered that Switch Chuckers that actually balance a rod they choose to use is the better way to go. Respectfully, John Van Derhoof FFI Master Single Hand & Two-Handed Casting Instructor"
