12ft 6in #7/8 4pce : This light double handed rod has been designed for accurate, stealthy presentations, needed when fishing in low and clear waters. Yet this rod has the power for distance and large fish. A fun and very useful rod for any serious fisherman.

12ft 6in #8/9 4pce : With its fast, sensitive action, this rod is designed to handle wind and slightly larger flies in small to medium sized rivers. When it comes to balance and loop control, this is definitely one of the finest rods around.

13ft 0in #8/9 4pce : A little longer, a little more power and a bit more all-round than the 12’6 version, we expect that this rod will be just as popular as our bestselling 13’ 3-piece version.

14ft 0in #9/10 4pce : A great all-round rod, that is suitable for most fishing conditions throughout the year. It has both excellent performance and a handy length that will fit in the trunk of your car.

15ft 0in #10/11 4pce : This rod will handle any matched shooting head with ease, ranging from floating or S6/S7 super sinkers. A light weight, nicely balanced rod with an action that loads the blank well down to the cork, ensuring long casts with minimal effort.

LPXe = Power on tap

This rod is a superb casting machine that works best when used with power taper lines and the Scandinavian spey casting method. Pour on the power and you are wasting your energy, this rod does it all for you. However, one result is that you need to keep checking that the sections are still very firmly pushed together or you risk a breakage.
I love my LPXe and would not leave home without it !
