Horizon Tactical Competition Nymph Series

Quality –  Horizon Tactical Competition Nymph rods utilize state-of-the art Nanohoop  graphite technology, top quality fittings and feature bleached AAAA grade cork and reversed half-wells grips.

Balance Control – The utilisation of a down-locking reel seat on the 3-weight rod transfers the rod’s swing-weight further down the rod to enhance feel and sensitivity in the tip. The 6-weight rod has an up-locking reel seat with double locking rings. There is a small fighting butt on both rod models.

Measurement Wraps – Incorporated into the superb finishes of the rods are measurements wraps, placed 30cm and a further 20cm from the butt, giving a total length of 50cm from the end of the fighting butt. This allows the angler quick and easy access to important measurements.

Competition Guides –An additional single-foot guide per section reduces line slap and lateral line movement along the blank. An inverted stripping guide reduces the chance of line-wrap.

Stealth – Black fittings and wraps on a matte black blank reduces rod flash and improves the angler’s stealth on the water.

Quick Assembly – all sections have witness marks, or alignment dots for easy assembly.

Rod protection – Horizon Tactical Competition Nymph rods come packaged in a partitioned cotton bag inside a protective, zip-up Cordura tube.

Back-up service – Replacement sections are available from Frontier Fly Fishing.

3-Weight, 10-foot 0-inch, 4-piece rod.

This highly adaptable 10-foot, 3-weight rod is perfect for Euro-style nymphing. This rod is capable of casting and managing teams of nymphs but also presents dry flies, or dry and dropper teams accurately and delicately. The 10-foot length assists with extra reach and allows the angler to keep a maximum amount of line off the water. This improves drifts by reducing line-to-water entry angles and helps maintain contact with flies.

6-Weight, 10-foot 0-inch, 4-piece rod.

This versatile, 10-foot, 6-weight rod is perfect for Euro-style nymphing but is also excellent at generating high line speed and delivering a range of flies to distant targets. The rod’s powerful butt will assist in subduing big fish, but the sensitive tip helps register subtle bites and protects light tippets.
