With the "TRADITION" series of fly rod AIRRUS introduces the first major design change in fly rods in the last hundred and fifty years. During the development of the "TRADITION" fly/spin combo rod we also began development of this radically new and innovative series of fly rods based on our integrated blank technology. This allows the grip and blank to be filament wound in one contiguous unit, which affords a lower end strength to weight that far exceeds other rods with similar line ratings. This translates into long effortless casts, while our proprietary Multi-Modulus provides for pinpoint accuracy. Each of the new "TRADITION" in the series is designed to take the HARD out of fly fishing and put the fun in. Whether you are a novice or an old hand, you will be impressed with each rods ability to keep a fly airborne and under control until that precise moment that you decide to drop it on the nose of some wary Trout or Tarpon. All models in the series have quality Fuji guides at "Concept" spacing with saltwater models featuring oversize stripper guides and tip tops. Big game and Spey models come with extended fighting butts for greater leverage.
