Whether you are casting lighter Tenkara Level Line or Furled\/Tapered Lines you will find that it directs the line with ease for very accurate casting and line control to put the fly where you want it. This is done with a shorter slightly thicker tip that forces the rod to load and directs the line better than a thin tip normally does. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLow Weight\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis rod is very low weight at just ? ounces and is very light in hand making it a joy to cast even on long fishing days.
