Douglas Sky G Fly Rod

Exceeds Expectations

I've been fishing the Douglas DXF mid-priced series for awhile and decided to spend the money on their flagship rod. 9' 5 weight is incredibly light and loads well for my normal 30-40 ft dry fly casts using a Rio technical trout line. My accuracy is improved and it's a great looking rod as well.

Very nice, easy to cast, versatile 5 wt

We fish a lot of 22 and 24s where I fish, and it helps to have a rod that has enough give that when a large fish runs he doesn't pull the hook. However rods with soft backbones make it difficult to move the larger fish out of the current. I picked up the TnT Zone 9'5 wt to fill that void in my rods. It's easy to cast both tight and wide loops. It gives me the backbone when I need, while also giving me the feel and give when the fish make a run. I liked this rod so well, I went back and bought the 7wt for inshore saltwater.
