Description:
This 8ft 6in 2pc bamboo fly rod blank reimagines the Paul H. Young Texas General taper with a medium-fast action profile, delivering the perfect equilibrium between casting power and tactile feedback. The taper focuses flex in the mid-blank for smooth energy loading while retaining sufficient butt stiffness to control fish in heavy cover.
Crafted from hand-split Tonkin bamboo using six-strip bonding technology, the blank features 18% nickel silver ferrules precision-milled for flawless alignment. The default varnish coating protects against environmental wear, while an optional unfinished version allows personalized finishing techniques.
Optimized for 8wt lines, this blank excels in delivering large streamers and poppers through 30-60ft casting ranges with wind-cutting efficiency. Its balanced action provides both the backbone to horse bass from lily pads and the sensitivity to detect subtle saltwater takes, making it a versatile tool for diverse predatory fishing scenarios.
