DON´T JUDGE A ROD<br />
BY ITS PIECES<br />
Preconceptions... Nasty little things. But also wonderful if you are<br />
determined to change them. Tis was our goal when we began developing<br />
some of our existing LXi rods into fve & six-piece travel rods.<br />
Every fy-fsher in the world ”knows” that a fve or six piece rod just<br />
isn´t as good as a four-piece. When so many pieces are joined together,<br />
much of the action and the ”soul” is lost. Well, things are about to change.<br />
With the new LXi T-Pac series, we have managed to develop travel rods<br />
that maintain the qualities of their original four-piece cousins.<br />
How did we do it? We started from scratch. Again. We began by<br />
putting light recoil-rings on the blanks, ensuring minimum loss of action.<br />
We then shortened the grip so that the rods would deliver more ”feel”<br />
and power in the lower parts. We moved on to refne the blanks and the<br />
ferrules to deliver the power seamlessly from bottom to top. Job done.<br />
Te rods come in an extremely light rod tube and air-meshed rod bag<br />
and will all ft into a travel bag with the rest of your gear. So no more<br />
messing around at the check-in desk. Are you ready to change your mind<br />
about travel rods? Ten stop judging the book by its cover. Go on, take<br />
these new rods out for a test. Make up your own mind. Go beyond.<br />
Go with a T-Pac next time.<br />
