Primal Bold Single Handed Fly Rod
The Primal Bold is a modern single-handed fly rod with a nice design and an outstanding value for money. It allows beginners a successful entry into the world of fly fishing, and also more experienced fly fishermen will be presently surprised by its very appealing performance.
It has a lightweight high modulus carbon blank that features the modern UHC, LMS and LNR technologies. Thus, it has a fast action with a relatively fast recovery. Nevertheless, its great casting properties are also suitable for beginners, and therefore it is surprisingly easy to cast. Further, its reliable aluminium reel seat with a modern design will hold the reel securely in place. And its ergonomically shaped handle made of high-quality cork provides this rod with a very pleasant feel. Last but not least, your line will glide through the high-quality guides with hardly any resistance, which allows good casting distances. Therefore, it is a very versatile rod for targeting species such as trout and grayling in different types of water – whether a tiny creek or a larger stream. In addition, the higher line classes are also great for targeting our local predators with streamers.
In short: The Primal Bold Single Handed Fly Rod offers a surprisingly great performance for an impressively low price, and therefore it will allow both beginners and price-conscious fly fishermen to fish in a very successful way. In fact, it combines a classy design with very appealing and powerful casting properties!
