FLY RODS BIOCRAFT XR FLY FROM SHIMANO
THE BIOCRAFT XR FLY ARE IDEAL FLY RODS FOR FISHING WITH DRY FLIES AND NYMPHS ON SMALL STREAMS UP TO MEDIUM RIVERS
The BIOCRAFT XR FLY fly rods from Shimano are ideally suited for fine fishing with dry flies and nymphs. The variety of available rod models covers a whole range of different types of water. The different models of the BIOCRAFT XR FLY offer the right fly rod for the small overgrown creek up to the medium river:
- 7'6" (229 cm), line class #3, 3-piece: Due to its reduced length best suited for small, even heavily overgrown creeks.
- 8'0" (244 cm), line class #4, 3-piece: the ideal fly rod for fishing with dry flies and smaller nymphs on rivers, where precise presentation rather than casting distance is the priority
- 8'6" (259 cm), line class #4, 4-piece: the ideal fly rod for fishing with the dry fly and smaller nymphs on small and medium rivers
- 8'6" (259 cm), line class #5, 4-piece: the right fly rod if you like to fish with weighted nymphs and light streamers on small and medium rivers in addition to dry flies
- 9'0" (274 cm), line class #4, 4-piece: best suited for pleasant pleasure fishing with the dry fly and classic nymph fishing on medium sized waters
- 9'0" (274 cm), line class #5, 4-piece: the all-round fly rod par excellence, with which you are ideally equipped for dry fly, nymph and light streamer fishing on medium-sized waters
As with all fly rods from the Biocraft XR series, the blanks of the BIOCRAFT XR FLY are also based on the exclusive carbon fibre technologies from Shimano. This results in responsive and lightweight fly rods with superior performance. They offer an incomparably direct feel when casting and allow a delicate and precise presentation of your fly.
The fittings of all models of the BIOCRAFT XR FLY rods are of high quality, the workmanship is impeccable. The fly rods of the line classes #3 and #4 have an elegant uplock reel seat with beautiful wooden insert. The fly rods of line class #5 are equipped with an aluminium reel seat (uplock as well) milled in the shape of an x with generous cut-outs and dark insert. The handle of all fly rods is made of s-grade Powercork. The fly rods are equipped with a guide ring with SIC insert as well as single legged running guides. Just above the rod handle is a practical hook keeper.
All BIOCRAFT XR FLY rods are delivered in a velvet case as well as a hardcase rod tube.
