Model:854C JWR

The combination of a longer rod (9′ vs 8’6″) with a moderate-fast action and a rating of 1/2 – 2oz is what allows this rod to cast further with the swimbaits that I typically throw

this rod delivers premium performance at a fraction of the price of comparable (and often lesser) rods found in traditional fly shops
