*1Upstream - This beautiful rod series from Douglas could not have been named more aptly. Because a dry fly is best served upstream. And this is exactly what these ultra-light rods were built for in the USA with a lot of heart and soul. Each model in the Upstream lineup is designed to offer a minimal but highly functional approach to stream and river fishing. Meeting the challenges of discreet presentation at all distances and immediate control of line, fly and fish in perfect harmony, the Upstream achieves this with ease. There goes lovers of delicate fishing with dry flies!
Unlike the shorter Upstream rods, the Upstream Plus is a touch faster and allows you to use nymphs or streamers as well. You can still use ultra-fine tippets without hesitation, as the sensitive tip safely buffers sudden escapes. The progressive action of these blanks also stands up to big brown trout and grayling and helps you to guide the fish quickly and safely into the landing net. The carbon blanks of the Upstream Plus fly rods are equipped with a first-class cork finish. We particularly like this traditional look! The fly reel is fixed with a high-quality Up-Locking reel seat on all models and the natural Tonkin colouring exudes the charm of timeless bamboo rods. Clear decorative wraps round off the very beautiful overall appearance of these rods and underline the minimalist finish of impeccable quality.
Upstream Plus fly rods from Douglas combine state-of-the-art technology with traditional fly fishing values. If your heart beats for trout and grayling fishing on running waters and you appreciate the sensitive casting, then you are well advised to choose this rod series. A rod class with a lot of soul that we can warmly recommend!
