Vision Toka Single Handed Fly Rod
The TOKA by Vision takes over the legacy of the popular EKA rods. This is already reflected in the name! Because while EKA means 'First' in Finnish, TOKA stands for 'Second'. However, what remains is the fantastic price-performance ratio that characterizes this rod series. Because in the price segment below €200, these single-handed rods with their medium-fast action and carefully selected components offer everything beginners and price-conscious fly fishers need for a good time on the water. The TOKA family includes suitable models for many different scenarios: From delicate dry fly fishing to casting long lines on still water. This is why, you will find longer and shorter rods in the TOKA range, from light to higher line classes.
All TOKA models are crafted with a 24T graphite blank, offering a balanced mix of power and lightweight. All rod blanks are unfinished and in a subtle graphite color, resulting in a tactical and timeless look. Matching this, all models feature black anodized aluminum screw reel seats, securely holding your reel in place. The action of each rod and its components have been developed and assembled for specific purposes. So, the lighter rod classes feature a slim half-wells handle made of classic cork, while the higher models use a reinforced full-wells handle combined with a fighting butt made of robust EVA. Each 4-piece TOKA rod is supplied in a matching Cordura transport tube, protecting your rod on the way to the river or lake.
Aside from the cool appearance, we are particularly impressed by the casting performance of the TOKA single-handed rods. Because all models feature a medium-fast action that is appreciated not only by beginners in fly casting. Whether at short distances or long casts, the TOKA is a lot of fun and is capable of presenting very precisely and fatigue-free. In combination with a matching fly line, the TOKA offers plenty of power and therefore feels comfortable even on larger waters.
In short: Once again, the product developers at Vision have succeeded in creating a very attractive rod series at a competitive price, covering a wide spectrum of modern fly fishing. Here, passionate dry fly fishers will find just as much satisfaction as lovers of streamer fishing. Last but not least, the TOKA scores with a modern look that we really like!
