*1The LRS Series offers the entry into the world of fly rods from Douglas Outdoors and convinces with a very fair price-performance ratio. With these models, Fred Contaoi (head rod maker at Douglas) has combined outstanding performance with an unbeatable price and created rods for anglers who value convincing quality and practicality - without dipping into the premium segment. Each LRS rod has been fine-tuned to find the perfect action to meet the needs of experienced anglers and beginners alike.
All LRS fly rods from Douglas feature an eye-catching deep blue finish complemented by a nickel plated stainless stripping guide, hard chrome plated snake guides, high quality cork handles and a carbon reel seat with double uplocking rings. With models for a wide variety of uses on the fishing water, LRS rod series is an important member of the large Douglas family and offers far more than most fly rods in this price segment on the market.
Due to its length of 13.8ft. (4,20m) the Douglas LRS Spey Rod is highly universal and ideal for medium sized Salmon rivers. The line class #8/9 is perfect for holding large, fresh fish in the current as well as having fun with smaller bars of silver. In short: one of the most popular combinations among Salmon anglers! The blank of the LRS can be loaded very deep when anchored on the water and still produces high line speeds. Casts in the Skagit style as well as in the classical Spey style go with the LRS playfully from the hand - and over all casting distances. The long cork handle is very comfortable in the hand and is in no way inferior to the other components used for this spey rod.
With the Douglas LRS, the American rod builders offer an interesting entry into the fascinating world of two-hand casting and Salmon fishing. A great addition to the LRS one-hand series and due to the attractive price-performance ratio an interesting alternative to some European manufacturers.
