Skagit Power. Scandi Grace. Total Control.

RIO's Elite Scandi MDC Kit Long is the complete two-handed toolbox in a single package — designed for serious Spey casters who want depth control, casting precision, and the versatility to cover every swing scenario. Combining the efficiency of Scandi-style casting with RIO's most advanced coating technology and Multi-Density Control tips, this kit handles everything from skating dry flies to probing the deepest winter lies.

The long-body heads pair beautifully with modern Spey rods of 12ft and above, delivering smooth, unhurried turnover and elegant D-loops that feel almost effortless once you're in rhythm. Whether you're hunting winter salmon on a Scottish spate river or swinging for sea trout on the Dee, the Elite Scandi MDC Kit Long delivers control and casting confidence.

What's Included

  • SlickShooter running line — matched to grain weight (35lb for #7 and lighter, 50lb for #8 and above)
  • Elite Scandi Body — long-format floating head with SlickCast coating
  • MDC Tip Set in Tip Wallet — 4 x 18ft tips: Floating (F), Float/Hover/Intermediate (F/H/I), Hover/Intermediate/S3 (H/I/S3), Intermediate/S3/S5 (I/S3/S5)

Technology

  • SlickCast® — RIO's slickest, most durable coating ever measured on a fly line. Self-lubricating formula continuously releases slickening agents for faster line speeds, longer casts, and crack-resistant longevity
  • MDC (Multi-Density Control) — a continuous blend of different density coatings along the tip length, giving anglers complete depth control when swinging a fly, with perfect contact right to the fly and smooth, consistent loops
  • ConnectCore Plus — RIO's low-stretch core for instant contact and maximum sensitivity

Features

  • Smoother casting performance with wide range of system lengths for different rod lengths
  • Full selection of 18ft tips for precise depth control from surface to deep
  • Colour-coded welded loops at the front of the body and back of the sink tips for fast, foolproof matching
  • EasyID line marking system shows model and line weight at a glance

Best Suited For

  • Two-handed Spey rods 12ft and longer
  • Atlantic salmon, sea trout, and steelhead on larger rivers
  • Anglers who want to cover the full water column with a single kit

Size Guide

Available in WF7, WF8, WF9, WF10, and WF10+. Match to your rod's rated line weight. For switch rods or trout Spey up to 12ft, consider the Elite Scandi MDC Kit Short instead.
