*1ArcticSilver's latest highlight, the Switch-Flex System (patent pending), offers top-tier flexibility. This innovative system allows you to exchange fly rod blanks within the same handle in seconds. Whether you need to switch from a delicate 3-weight rod for precise casts to a heavy 10-weight rod for battling larger fish, the Switch-Flex System makes it possible with just a few quick steps. If you already own a Switch-Flex Handle, you can take advantage of the more affordable blanks from Arctic Silver and easily mount them into the Switch-Flex Handle System.
The ArcticSilver BEAST single-handed fly rod blank with medium-fast action is based on the extremely popular Ultimate Beast blank from Arctic Silver's well-known fly rod of the same name. This blank is deeply loading and powerful, effortlessly casting even the largest flies over great distances. With the Beast blank, you get impressive performance with cutting-edge materials like graphene. This unique rod was specifically designed for fishing with large flies targeting strong predators.
Effortless casting all day long, with significantly reduced strain on the wrist and tendons, is just one of the many benefits of Arctic Silver's innovative handle system. This is particularly advantageous when fishing with large streamers. Naturally, this design harmonizes perfectly with the state-of-the-art carbon blank. The blank combines groundbreaking stability with an ultra-lightweight design. Additionally, the tip section is made from 30T carbon, while the lower section is crafted from 40T carbon, resulting in an exceptional bending curve. Its medium-fast to fast action with relatively high recovery speed gives this rod truly powerful casting properties. As a result, it can cast even gigantic pike streamers to record-breaking distances, and you can truly feel the deep-loading flex profile with a rating just over 1/2. Finally, the titanium stripping guides with ceramic inserts and titanium snake guides ensure that your fly line glides smoothly toward the horizon with minimal friction.
In short: The blank lives up to its name, as it truly is a "Beast" with very powerful casting and fighting characteristics, thanks to the cutting-edge graphene blank. This makes the blank and the Beast single-handed fly rod an excellent choice for fishing for our native predators and, of course, for strong saltwater species!

First of all, the Norwegian manufacturer ArcticSilver is known for a truly innovative range of fly rods. All of these rods have one unique feature in common: the so-called Free-Flex-System including the Quick-Lock reel seat. This patented design allows the blank to swing inside the handle, which creates outstanding casting and fish fighting properties. In fact, ArcticSilver offers many different models that are suitable for a variety of different fly fishing disciplines – whether casting delicate dry flies for trout or massive streamers for large predators. In addition, ArcticSilver also presents a large selection of modern fly lines that have a very thin diameter due to their so-called Micro Diameter (MD) design. This design allows record-breaking casting distances thanks to minimum friction in the rod guides and hardly any air resistance. In fact, these advantages are not only noticeable in combination with an ArcticSilver fly rod, but also with rods from other manufacturers.
