FRED’S TIP

Nice thing about this setup is you can adjust depth fast—no need to carry a bunch of different lines.

EXPANDED DESCRIPTION

The Elite MDC VersiTip system is designed for anglers who need flexibility on the water. Instead of carrying multiple lines, you can adjust your presentation depth by switching out tips, making it easier to adapt to changing conditions.

The multi-density construction helps keep your swing consistent through the water column, rather than having the line rise or drop unevenly. This is especially useful when targeting fish holding at specific depths.

RIO’s SlickCast coating improves line shootability and durability, while the low-stretch core gives you better connection to your fly—helpful when detecting subtle takes or setting the hook at distance.
