1. relating to form or shape 
2. appearance

 

A moderate flexing action fly rod with lots of feels. and is a fast recovery rod for those of use who want a rod that slows our tempo and connects to the moment. 

The top half of the rod has a progressive moderate action, while the bottom half stores plenty of extra power for a long cast or a hard fighting fish. The fast recovery allows for lot of forgiveness on form, particularly on a bad cast, and control for reach casts and other aerial mends. 

6’6″ 2wt  |  7’9″ 3wt
Built with the small stream angler in mind. The short length manages well under a canopy and is able to handle short cast in close quarters. The need to be able to pitch a long cast over a slow pool, or a larger fly or dry dropper rig is not lost to these rods. 

9′ 4wt | 9′ 5wt

Not all streams have a heavy canopy, nor are they small. Where space is not an issue, a nine foot rod has many tactical advantages. The taper allows for close quarter casting, while being able to reach out for long casts.
