I built this rod on a 9 foot 5 weight Hook and Hackle Xi blank. These blanks have a great faster medium action that can launch line through the wind with ease while still having a soft enough touch to drop a dry fly right where it needs to be!
I love the reel seat on this rod. The grip has a sweet look and holds up well to copious amounts of trout slime!
I have another rod, a 9 foot 4 weight built on an H&H FTX blank, just waiting for the guides wraps to be finished. Stay tuned as that will also be added to inventory at Whitewater Valley Flies!
Anyone interested in having a custom rod built feel free to contact me to discuss details.
