I was also going to note that the marketing name "Outbound" is misleading, suggesting that to catch fish you must cast far away from yourself. They should probably make a "Rio - Mostly around your feet" fly line (or for the surf fly fishermen, a "Rio - They're all behind you, you fool" fly line).
-- The main reason fly line companies sell shooting head fly lines is to save plastic by selling you more running line. It's a scheme.

I want the fly/line to sink just a few inches per second to keep it under the chop/waves but off the shallow bottom that is littered with weeds. The hydraulics 6 inches below the surface is drastically different from that on the surface. The intermediate line prevents the waves from pushing the line toward me and creating slack resulting in missed strikes or poor fly movement. The fact that it is clear (at least in my mind) makes it harder for the fish to see.
Mabey its just a confidence thing or mabey its all in my head but I love em !
Oh ya I got mine for 59 bucks ha ha!
