Description
Wychwood Drift Fly Rod
Constructed for anglers who want that little bit more power and performance, these will allow you to hook and hold fish at short and medium range with very thin tippets, small dry flies or nymphs without fear of the hook pulling out. You can also take your time and let it take the strain when playing big fish in fast water, the soft action will ensure every lunge is cushioned effectively.
Produced using super-fine grades of carbon, these lightweight and slim line fly models feature an action that suits all styles of river fishing. Rather than the overly stiff rods of yesteryear, often designed to propel a large dry fly miles across a large river, these are intimate.
With the new fly lines and lighter tapers that we now have at our disposal, we can get so much closer to our quarry and when fishing at such close range, models with softer, middle to tip actions, as featured in this range, are far more effective.
These tactical models feature an understated matt black finish, with black, lacquered whippings and olive highlights. The new P cork handle, features a camo look to ensure that it is discreet, not as bold and bright as the usual cork, in any challenging fishing situations.
They also feature a unique 20cm marker whipped the blank above the handle, in most competitions, only fish of 20cm or more are counted. With high end cosmetics, Pac Bay guides throughout, cut way and anodised reel seat, featuring a visible blank, these look as good as they perform!
These feature an action, a shade slower than fast, which most anglers will handle with ease. They have that extra bit of power down low in the butt section, so that distance casting is very easy and unlike a lot of stiff actioned designs, it has life and feel to it. This means that it is great for fighting fish as the whole blank comes into play, you will also be able to subdue your catch far quicker and without fear of putting too much strain on light tippet.
The range covers all the popular sizes when it comes to stillwater, reservoir and running water fishing applications.
