#Description
This 8ft 3pc 5wt bamboo fly rod features the legendary Cross Dry Fly taper, combining medium power for fish fighting control with moderate-fast action for precise dry fly presentations. The calculated taper progression creates progressive stiffness in the mid-section, providing both tip sensitivity for strike detection and sufficient backbone for battling 12-20" trout, stream smallmouth bass, and Arctic grayling.
Crafted from carefully selected Tokin bamboo strips aged 12+ months, the six-strip construction is finished with water-based varnish to preserve natural aesthetics. The 18% nickel silver ferrules are precision-machined to ±0.002" tolerance for flawless fit. Standard burgundy agate stripper guides pair with exotic hardwood reel seat, with customization options available through our official portal.
Ideal for technical dry fly scenarios requiring accurate CDC pattern placement, this rod shines in pocket water and tailwater environments. The three-piece configuration maintains traditional casting feel while enhancing portability, making it the ultimate choice for discerning anglers valuing heritage craftsmanship and modern performance.
