Guideline LPs Fly Rod - 9ft 9in - #3. Everything about this series is new. We have built these rods from scratch to offer the best balance between cost and performance. The results are a series of entry to intermediate level Euro nymph/light dry fly presentation rods that offer an amazing experience.
LPs (Light Presentation Series) is Euro nymph/light dry fly presentation rods that offer an amazing experience. Built from high-modulus 36/30 graphite materials with reduced resin content, weight has been kept at a minimum with an impressive balance (for rods of this length and price). Action curves have been developed and refined together with two of the very best Euro Nymph anglers in UK: Alex Jardine and Lewis Hendrie to suit the competence level and casting style of beginner to intermediate anglers.
The action can be described as a "forgiving" Medium/Fast Flex that tolerates operator errors without sacrificing performance when loaded in the correct way. Tip sections are rigid, yet soft enough to manage very thin Euro style leaders down to 6 or 7x without risking too easy break offs. Super fun rods to cast, operate and to play fish with. The downlocking reel seat, positions the reel as close to the butt as possible to give optimum balance and sensitivity for nymphing. Handles are slim reversed half wells, tapered towards the blank to let you smoothly slide that index finger onto the blank for maximum strike detection.
