- Nano technology makes this rod light and strong(weighing a mere 80.2 grams).
- Built in sweet spot makes for accurate casting whether short and long.
- Stealth olive finish ideal for spooky trout.
- A high quality rod without the price tag.
- Great butt end strength for fighting those bigger fish.
The Speedline Discovery NANO Fly fishing rods take full advantage of new technology to create a rod that is beautifully balanced and lightweight with a crisp clean action that provides both superb casting and fish playing characteristics.
