Product information "Vision XO Catapult 6pc travel double-handed flyrod"
With the Vision XO Catapult 6pc, the Scandinavian manufacturer Vision presents an update to its flagship XO Graphene series of double-handed fly rods. Now finally also available as a six-piece travelling rod. This rod series impresses in every respect - not only with its modern design and high-quality components such as carbon and graphene, which have been upgraded once again, but also with its outstanding performance.
The XO Catapult 6pc effortlessly fulfils the demands of even the most discerning fly fisherman! The blank of this innovative rod is made of graphene - one of the strongest materials in the world. The result? An impressive lightness, exceptional stability and sensitivity. This state-of-the-art blank has been combined with the best components on the market to ensure unrivalled performance. And thanks to the new six-piece rod design, this performance can also be enjoyed when travelling. Compared to its predecessor, the materials used have been upgraded once again and the manufacturing processes have been optimised to get the best out of the materials. As a result, the new XO series impresses with its outstanding performance and lightness when fishing. This is particularly noticeable with the long double-handed rods of the XO family from Vision, because you never have the feeling of moving a heavy catapult, but a state-of-the-art fly rod with lightweight components and excellent casting properties.
The Vision XO Catapult are versatile, lightweight double-handed rods for salmon and sea trout fishing in the river. The rod series comprises 3 different sizes, which means you are equipped for almost any situation from small to large rivers. Thanks to the significantly faster action compared to its predecessor, particularly heavy and sinking shooting heads can be cast with ease. This is particularly noticeable during spring flood fishing, when you can move the 15 ft class 10 fly rod with ease and the catapult simply shoots even the unwieldy sinkers across the river.
In short: The Vision XO Catapult 6pc double-handed fly rod combines record-breaking stability, impressive lightness and a crisp action - a perfect combination for fly fishermen who don't want to compromise!
