We have been encouraged to venture into a budget fly rod project worthy of the name GUIDELINE. This brand new EXP4 Series is packed with high performance and is a great buy for any beginner or intermediate fly fisher looking for fastaction; lightweight rods that will help make fishing fun. These rods load easily and, if your timing slips, they’ll forgive you. EXP4s are manufactured from different blends of carbon cloth in different parts of the blank. Totally new and revised tapers and graphite cloths make these rods a full generation more modern and sharp than the previous EXP3 version. And all that at a better price.
