Rod for Euro style, short
line nymphing technique.
Medium-fast action
The rod will be
your arm extension while leading your nymph rig, will let you fill every
stone, bump, or spooky fish bite and will protect your finest tippets.
It has enough backbone to fight trophy fish and with this rod it would
be a massive trill.
It doesn't mean it wont present a dry fly with fines
if there are rising fishes...
The components I used:
- Seymo snake guides and tip top, wrapped with finest Pearsall’s silk;
- Snake Brand (Fuji) striper guide;
- Custom turned top flor cork handle;
- Up locking reel seat with custom bamboo insert;
- Custom rod cloth;
- Custom Alu tube, cork caps (& bamboo cap as option).
The
rod weight is 3.84oz or 109 gr. I put more weight in the but section
using heavier reel seat, so you would balance the rod with lighter reel.
