#Description
The Paul H.Young Princess taper shatters conventional 5wt limitations through radical engineering. Its aggressive butt-section reinforcement (0.339") creates unprecedented lifting power for modern predator fishing demands. The dramatic taper progression in the final 25" functions like a mechanical switch - delivering pinpoint accuracy at partial load while unleashing cannon-like power when fully engaged.
Crafted from hexagonally-split Tonkin bamboo cores with 18% nickel silver ferrules, this rod withstands corrosive coastal environments. The varnished finish showcases natural bamboo aesthetics, paired with tactical-grade dark agate guides and hardwood reel seat. Designed for technical scenarios requiring heavy streamer penetration through 30-knot crosswinds or precise nymph rig placement in structure-rich zones.
