Throughout the rod are colors and accents that call to mind the early days of the company, yet they’re presented in unquestionably modern forms and details. We’ve incorporated the highest-quality and most progressive parts and components, from cork and handle shape to guides, wood insert, and reel seat. Overall, the rods are timeless and fit for any generation.
