Saltwater flyfishing is a passion - it's advantage fish, not angler. A fanatical pursuit with zeal fueled by the degree of difficulty required to reach the ultimate goal. It's fast fish and skinny water for some... big fish and blue water for others. Sometimes it's finesse and long leaders, but most of the time it's brute strength and power! Creating fly rods for such a demanding fishery requires a lot of dreaming and a lot of fishing. The final result is the most advanced and uniquely different series of fly rods ever. Messrs. Pallot, Wejebe, Rajeff and loomis and a cast of hundreds shared their angling and casting expertise to help us create our new "CrossCurrent" saltwater fly rods. The new 8'6" #14 CrossCurrent was field tested on an extended world tour for pelagic and reef species with numerous world records caught. light enough to be "castable" for long periods while reef fishing, the rod has plenty of toughness and lifting power to fight GT's and Grouper.
