Guideline LPX Tactical Single Hand Fly Rods

These rods are nothing short of exceptional: Super smooth, yet rigid and master all the different types of casts you like to do and protect the finest tippets playing your trophy trout. Ultralight in hand and in real weight - 9ft #5 weighs just 71 grams!

THE 9’0” ROD MODELS
The 9ft rods are superlight fly rods for those who favour this classical length with the advantage of true lightweight feeling for the recommended line wt. Incredibly versatile and less affected by wind, they have a faster action than the 9’9” rods.

The rods in #2-#3 in the 9ft range are true dry fly and nymphing rods for the most delicate fishing with the finest tippets.

The #4 and #5 are go-to rods for all-around dry and nymphing in all types of waters. These rods exhibit equally good performance on short and long distances with all types of casts.

9’0”#4 and 9’0”#5 are go-to rods nr 1 for allround dry and nymphing in all types of waters. The properties in these are equally good fishing on short and long distance with all types of casts. 

The #6 wt rod is for those who seek more wind-exposed areas and want a rod to manage streamers well too.

The #7wt is there to handle those chunky articulated streamers with heavy sinking lines

THE 9’9” ROD MODELS
The 9’9” rods are our new approach to a state of the art combo rod for dry fly, nymph, euro nymphing and lighter streamer fishing. Thanks to the advanced blank technology the 9'9 rods are extremely user friendly. They have a very low swing weight for the length/wt ,are crisp and modern and capable of shaping tight, accurate loops. The added length offers a longer reach on the water and a better contact and control during the drift. Compared with the 9ft rods, these enable you to control the height of your cast better, clearing bushes and high banks behind you. They also offer more time to perform aerial mends and curve casts during the presentation phase. When fishing from a belly boat or when wading deep the 9'9 rods give you additional height during casting.

The 9’9”#4 is a delight crisp and precise tool for delicate work with dry flies and light nymphs, with a tip section balanced to cushion the finest of tippets. Ideal for upstream and downstream dry fly fishing over trout and grayling in bigger European rivers when distance is required: Traun, Drau, Loue, Dordogne, Salza, Boyne, Suir, a non exhaustive list...  

The 9'9”#5 is super allround and equally for rivers, lakes and tarns (mountain lakes). While being a perfect match with dries and nymphs, this beautiful rod also perform excellent with lake rigs or smaller streamers, from boat (lough style) and shore.

THE 10’0” ROD MODELS
The LPX Tactical 10 ft rods are available in two models - line weights #6 and #7.
These rods are designed for boat-style fishing with fly rigs, a tradition in lakes and reservoirs in Ireland and other areas of the UK.
They have a powerful action that supports casting and sweep-style fishing with long leaders and multiple flies.
The 10ft length also provides some extra height of the line when casting while sitting in a boat or wading deep.

C.A.P M4.0™ TECHNOLOGY
C.A.P M4.0™ gives spectacular performance with flawless recovery and unique precision. C.A.P Technology features a Complex Axial Pattern (CAP) paired with unidirectional carbon fiber layups. In CAP, layers of carbon fibers are placed in varying angles to each other to maximize strength and stability in all directions. In a unidirectional non-woven carbon pattern, all fibres run in a single, parallel direction ensuring maximum strength lengthwise. M4.0 ™ is the resin we use in this type of blank construction. The properties of this resin fill the gaps in the carbon cloth more effective than normal resins and has greater strength. It also decreases the overall need for resin in blank construction. Resulting in lighter rods than ever before.
