Over lining an extra fast action rod is essentially slowing that action down. The folks that do this are searching for the “soul” in their rods! You don’t have to sacrifice speed for soul. You can have both! Since 2009 we have been working on the XS series. Trying to find the perfect balance between speed, sensitivity, and fighting power.
All Tradewinds XS fly rods are fitted with titanium coated stainless steel snake guides and silicon carbide inserts in our stripping guides, ATC aluminum infinity reel seats, AAA grade cork, include a rod sock and one of our newly designed travel tubes.
Even though the XS rods bare the Tradewinds name they are very different from the Tradewinds you are used to. We have changed everything from the blanks to the seats to the guides to the travel tubes. Lots of time was spent on the little details in the blank design. A truly outstanding fly rod is born from the attention to those details.
