Package Details:

Fly Rods

Allen Heritage Rod Series 7’6” 3 weight, 4 piece, fly rod is the result of 2 years of development to blend classic style trout rod action with modern refinements. Mid flex action that casts small dries and nymphs with delicate presentation, protects your light trout tippets, and realize it’s reserve power when you hook the boss. Dark brown rod with dark burgundy wraps, burlwood seat, rod tube.
Allen Compass Rod Series 9’ 5 weight, 4 piece, medium fast taper that excels at distance and handles heavy loads exceptionally. The improved grip is now more durable, while the larger guides not only make stringing up the rod easier, but allow for loop-to-loop connections and backing knots to pass through more fluidly. As far as line pairings go, the Compass is ideally suited to lines like our Force Taper, as the short head on the line brings out the best in the rod. Let the Compass guide you to your next on-the-water successes!
