Sight nymphing

For this type of fishing, which is mainly aimed at Trout and Grayling, we need Blanks that meet exacting specifications. You'll need to cast a small nymph quickly and accurately from the end of a long, thin leader. Manoeuvrability plays its part when you need to deploy a long leader in a crowded environment. Although nervous, the blank must also be able to hold beautiful fish on fine to very fine nylon diameters.

1. Rodbuilders Republic LighHouse 864 : 8'6'' Silk 4. The perfect blank for light Sight nymphing. Its lightness and manoeuvrability are outstanding. It's easy to fish and fabulously responsive. It excels at quickly pulling out a long, fine leader, precisely setting down a lightly weighted nymph and letting it drift naturally towards the target fish. Excellent reaction to hooking and excellent hold on the fish. This is THE blank for Grayling and fine Trout fishing.
2. FP864-4 : 8.6' Silk 4. Blank slightly more powerful than the LH864-4. It's the right blank for those who like a lot of control and a fast casting style. It will take a wf5 perfectly when wind conditions demand it. It qualifies as a #4.5...
3. North Fork Composite FAF 904 : 9' Silk 4/5. Very light and powerful, it's above all a blank that shines for the control it offers. With its rather dry tip action, extremely Live bait whip, high line speed and precise landing, this is a rod for fishing big fish on slightly stronger leaders. It's a rod capable of ultra-fast hook-ups. It's also a formidable rod for dry fly fishing at medium and long distances.
