Zephrus FWS Fly Rod - 4-Piece

It's important to be able to make a 40 foot cast to wary trout feeding at the head of a beaver pond, but it's also crucial to be able make short, precise casts to the fish you spot feeding in the pocket water just in front of you, and that's where the Hardy Zephrus FWS Fly Rod comes in. Replacing the award-wining Zenith series, the Zephrus is now lighter and more responsive, resulting in better line recovery time and effortless line pick up, which will enable you to effortlessly cast everything from tiny midge patterns to big golden stones and skwalas.

Made through Hardy's Sintrix manufacturing process, the Sintrix 440 blank is composed of an epoxy resin infused with nano silicone spheres combined with a high modulus carbon fiber material, resulting in a rod that's 60% stronger and 30% lighter than the Zenith. Being apart of the fresh water series (FWS), the Zephrus is fine-tuned for any discipline of trout fishing with weights and lengths available that will excel on everything from brushy creeks, tailwaters, and large lakes and rivers. The handle is composed of a 4A grade cork with a hardwood burl wood spacer and up-locking anodized reel seat, giving the rod a classic look and feel to complement its otherwise modern, fast-action feel.
