Description:

This 9ft 4in 3pc bamboo fly rod blank resurrects the iconic Paul H. Young Para 11 parabolic taper, designed for anglers pursuing powerful fish in demanding conditions. The parabolic taper creates seamless flex throughout the blank, maximizing energy storage for long casts while providing unparalleled shock absorption during fights.

Constructed from hand-split Tonkin bamboo with hexagonal bonding, the blank features pre-mounted 18% nickel silver ferrules calibrated for optimal alignment. The default high-gloss varnish protects the bamboo's natural fibers while highlighting its aesthetic grain, with an optional unfinished version for custom finishing.

As a professional-grade blank, it pairs perfectly with 8wt lines to drive large streamers and poppers through wind and currents. Ideal for saltwater flats, estuaries, and big rivers, this blank dominates scenarios targeting salmon, striped bass, and other hard-fighting species.
