TFO Axiom II Switch - This EFTTEX Best New Fly Rod, is engineered for two-hand anglers requiring optimal performance across a range of fishing techniques from a single rod.

Now, by combining TFO’s highest modulus materials and our proprietary Kevlar application with actions inspired by our industry-leading Deer Creek series, Axiom II breaks the code delivering the large grain windows necessary for a truly exceptional multi-technique two-handed rod.
The primary goal of a switch rod is to ...

Vision Tool DH rods have been a kind of an enigma since their introduction. Black matte blanks together with exceptional reel seats and thin EVA handles gave these rods a unique stealthy look. So much so, that some more conservative anglers have avoided even testing these rods. Most of those who have tested have been really happy with the smooth and powerful performance of these rods.
However, in order to make them more approachable for everybody, Vision made Tool DH rods also available with cork handles. In addition, Vision introduced three new models (currently only available with cork handles): 11’6’’ #5, 11’6’’ #7 ...
Vision XO DH - One of the first things we heard when we originally launched the XO range was where are the double handed rods? Although we had already played around with these rods way before we came out with the single handed rods we did not want to launch these before we had fine-tuned these to as close to perfection as possible. We had the same goal as with all XO products – they have to exceed everything we have done so far in every aspect. Just as for the single handed rods we wanted something that reflects our origins ...
Vision's full-scale single-hand rod series Onki nailed it. Since the launch it has been a real success in every possible way. Now Vision is doing the same with new Onki DH and Onki Switch SWITCH rods. The quality of high-modulus Korean graphite (40 tn) is something you normally find only in more expensive rods and it enabled us to create very light yet powerfull rods. The rest of the components are of great quality as well. These rods are in a great price range and when compared to proven Tool rods they have a bit softer action, especially in the case ...

Plenty of backing and a suitable leader are included. Everything is pre-spooled and ready for action. Packed in ...
Vision Tane Sofarod is intened, as the name suggests, to be used also indoors. Great for learning the basic principles of fly casting even while on sitting on your sofa in front of a TV screen watching your favorite fly fishing video. The package inludes a miniature Tane fly rod (4’) with a bulky fluorescent yarn. The yarn behaves pretty much the same way as a fly line and gives you a valuable training also in situations where full length fly line is impractical. The package inludes also two mountable target rings for accuracy practising. A great way to organise ...

Vision Eka - The EKA rods, meaning “first” in Finnish, are incredible rods in their price range. The blanks are made from 24ton low resin graphite making these rods light in weight and well balanced in hand.

The matt finished graphite colour blank doesn’t just look good, but it also shields you and the fish from unwanted reflections.

Echo Shadow X - Echo worked with veteran Euro Nymph guru Pete Erickson, 2018 fly fishing world champion Norm Maktima, and expert Mariusz Wrobewski to create a rod that is dialed-in to perform at the sport’s highest levels.
By using the most advanced high modulus graphite available, they were able to achieve the lightest rod Echo have ever produced. When you need to feel every nuance happening under the water, having the lightest, most sensitive rod you possibly can is the difference between 1st and 10th place.
Simply put: This is the most challenging project Echo have ever completed in their life as ...
