Precision meets elegance
The DANICA Fly Rod Series, meticulously crafted for those who appreciate the art of delicate presentations. This deep flex of the DANICA not only enhances performance but also gives you a moment of pause during your casting stroke, a special opportunity to reflect on the beauty of fly fishing.
As you cast, you'll notice the rod's ability to "speak" to you, subtly guiding you to use only the minimal amount of force needed. The result is smooth, controlled acceleration that allows your fly to land precisely and gently on the waters surface.
This product includes only the fly rod blank. To purchase a complete fly rod with a handle, you can either buy the handle separately or select the full fly rod option from the fly rod menu.

Who is this fly rod for?
The DANICA Fly Rod Series, meticulously crafted for those who appreciate the art of delicate presentations.
The designer behind this innovative series has always favored deep-action fly rods, characterized by their smooth and continuous bending curves.
These rods are designed with an unmistakable Flex Profile of 1/1, meaning most of the rod bends under moderate load.
This deep flex not only enhances performance but also gives you a moment of pause during your casting stroke — a special opportunity to reflect on the beauty of fly fishing. As you cast, you'll notice the rod's ability to "speak" to you, subtly guiding you to use only the minimal amount of force needed. The result is smooth, controlled acceleration that allows your fly to land precisely and gently on the water’s surface.
The DANICA series is perfect for fly fishers who prioritize accuracy and finesse. Designed specifically for dry flies, emergers, and small nymphs on fine tippets, these rods are masters of subtlety and control. However, with the right touch and technique, you'll find that these rods can also deliver slightly heavier flies with impressive distance and precision. Their deep-action design provides the balance and sensitivity needed for delicate presentations, while still offering surprising versatility for a range of fly sizes and fishing conditions.

The Switch-Flex System (patent pending), offers flexibility in a class of its own.
This revolutionary system allows you to seamlessly switch fly rod blanks within the same handle in a matter of seconds.
