Key Features
-
User-Friendly Medium-Fast Action: Tuned to be "forgiving," allowing the angler to easily feel the rod load during the backcast, which is essential for accurate presentations and learning the sport.
-
Versatile 5/6-Weight Rating: This dual-weight design allows you to use a 5-weight line for delicate dry fly work or a 6-weight line for better performance in the wind and when throwing slightly heavier nymphs or streamers.
-
Durable Carbon Construction: Built with a high-quality graphite blank that is lightweight enough for all-day use but rugged enough to handle the bumps and bruises of a day on the river.
-
4-Piece Travel Design: Breaks down into four 27-inch sections, making it easy to store in a car trunk or strap to a backpack for hiking into remote spots.
-
Reliable Components: Features a comfortable cork handle and a secure, corrosion-resistant reel seat designed for long-term reliability.
