The spiritual successor to the legendary Cross series, our new and much enhanced Z rods are the result of several years’ design, development and rigorous testing – all with the single goal of creating the ultimate combination of quality and value found in a fly rod.
Considerably lighter and yet far stronger than their predecessor thanks to the use of state-of-the-art nano resin technology, each rod in the Z series is made using 40-45 ton nano graphene carbon fibre of the highest specification available, ensuring the smoothest, most powerful action of any circular shaped rod we’ve ever come across.
Each rod in the series features the highest possible grade cork handle, specially designed lightweight reel seat, ceramic lined titanium stripping guides and titanium plated stainless steel snake guides.
The single-handed Z1 offers supreme distance, control and accuracy in a medium fast action, and comes in a range of models designed for every occasion and preference.
MODEL SPECIFICS
379 – Designed for dries or nymphs in creeks or smaller streams. Focus is on precision, light tippets and small flies.
490 – A go-to dry fly/nymphing rod for slightly larger waters and streams. A very precise rod with an action that’ll help you protect your tippet and ability to control the fish even with small flies and thin leaders.
590 – The ultimate trout angler’s utility rod. Simply a great allrounder that handles any trout fishing situation you may encounter.
5100 – Designed for still water fly fishing or larger rivers where great line control is essential.
796 – Created with light salmon and sea trout fishing in mind. The perfect choice for smaller to medium sized rivers where you won’t be needing a double-hander.
7100 – A bigger brother of the 796, it adds increased line control but without losing any of the feeling.
