THE BEST BENEFITS
LODGE INFORMATION
Feel
Description
The CLASSIC R8 family’s deep-loading, smooth, and Moderate action brings the physical feel of the cast - line, leader, and fly - directly to the angler, allowing for ultimate precision, control, and accuracy. When the fish is hooked, the rod’s deep bend protects light tippets and lets the angler feel every move of the fish. Anglers looking for the ultimate in hand-to-fly-to-fish feel will find it with the CLASSIC R8.
Accuracy
The Lodge
When rod weight is minimized and control of the fly line is maximized, the result is remarkably accurate placement of the fly - absolutely critical in those fishing scenarios with specific targets. CLASSIC R8 rods let anglers repeatedly deliver precise casts in the specific moments that matter most.
Performance
The Promised Land
Despite consistent angling intentions - downstream presentations to rising trout, as example - conditions constantly change. When needed, CLASSIC R8 rods maintain enough reserve power and energy-transfer required to make the longer cast or turnover a lengthy leader in the wind. At the same time, the rods are light and forgiving so they can be fished all day with minimal fatigue. The CLASSIC R8 combines a deep loading action with all-day performance.
