*1ArcticSilver's latest highlight, the Switch-Flex System (patent pending), offers exceptional flexibility. This innovative system allows you to swap fly rod blanks within the same handle in just 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 simple steps. Those who already own one of the Switch-Flex handles can take advantage of ArcticSilver’s more affordable blanks and easily mount them into the Switch-Flex System.
Casting all day without fatigue, with significantly less strain on the wrist and tendons, is just one of the many advantages of this innovative Switch-Flex handle system. In addition, the ArcticSilver FONNA single-hand fly rod blank (medium-fast action) itself brings plenty of fun! Its medium-fast action gives this blank extremely powerful and assertive casting characteristics, with a brilliant, continuous bend curve that enables the rod to launch the line with maximum power. The medium-fast action of the 40T carbon blank with the 30T carbon tip makes the rod especially popular among anglers who want to fish with both dry flies and nymph rigs. Heavy indicators or tungsten nymphs are no problem for the medium-fast Fonna. The slightly slower action even ensures that the loop is a bit more open than with the fast Fonna, preventing the indicator from tangling during the cast. Additionally, the rod's action makes it incredibly easy to lay down small dry flies with extreme delicacy. In addition to the impressive performance of the blank, the titanium stripping guides with ceramic inserts and the chrome snake guides ensure that your fly line shoots towards the horizon with record-breaking speed thanks to the minimal friction.
The impressive performance of the FONNA blank is indicative of the many similarities with ArcticSilver's top model, highlighting its excellent price-performance ratio. In short, the FONNA is an outstanding rod with powerful casting characteristics, especially suited for streamer fishing, and will bring smiles to anglers’ faces—whether on the Baltic coast, in rivers, or in all types of still waters!

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.
