LightHouse 1003-4

Nymph fishing with a tight line requires a long, light rod that allows for easy casting of a two-nymph rig, control of the drift, and sensitivity to the nymphs' behavior in the water.

A key characteristic of nymph fishing with a tight line is that a good blank must be particularly responsive, transmitting both contact with the bottom and subtle bites. Thanks to their geometry and lightness, Lighthouse blanks offer magnificent sensitivity, even with light rigs.

In our design specifications, we considered that the nymph angler might decide at any moment to switch tactics and switch from fly line to target a rise with a dry fly. In other situations, they might prospect with a large dry fly and a nymph in tandem. These blanks therefore had to be perfectly capable of casting a line. Their responsiveness and precision in tip control make them excellent casters, a delight on light lines. Our blanks are designed, in terms of size, power, and versatility, to be perfectly suited to the typical waterways and fishing methods practiced in Europe. Their satin, non-reflective finish allows for particularly discreet approaches, crucial for fishing for wary fish at close range.
