With the Vision Custom DH series, the cult brand from Finland is setting new standards. Different rivers or water levels require different two-handed fishing techniques, not only in terms of line selection but ideally also in the choice of rods and their action. Vision understands this and introduces a range of specific actions and lengths with the Custom DH rods.
The Vision Custom DH Two-Hand Fly Rod series doesn't just differ in length and rod class; each of these rods has a tailored action for the type of fishing where the class is most commonly used. The action of these four-piece rods is a powerful medium to medium-fast action (depending on the model), which allows the carbon rods to perform brilliantly on their own. Additionally, the AAAA Portuguese cork feels exceptional in hand, allowing you to handle the matte gray blank with ease. Serving as both an optical highlight and for enhanced durability, the EVA finishes at the bottom of the handle, also adorned with the Vision logo. To balance the rods perfectly, a down-locking reel seat, almost standard, has been used, equipped with two locking nuts to secure the reel in place. Two stripping guides, along with the other snake guides held under the minimalist wraps and the red decorative wraps, complete the picture of these unique two-handed rods perfectly.
- Custom Trout Spey Rods
These lightweight two-handed rods, reminiscent of switch rods, are designed especially for two-handed fishing for trophy trout, sea trout, or smaller salmon. Despite the light blanks, they have strong power reserves in the lower blank to cast compact Skagit lines with sink tips.
