"The world championships are extremely competitive, and any edge you can get can be the difference. Whether that is a lighter rod, the ability to cast further, bring a fish to the net faster, or even that immeasurable feeling of confidence. The Stalker Guide Series fly rod gave us all that."

- 7'9" 3wt- specificly made for overgrown streams that require an immaculate presentation, without the cumbersome length. You wouldn't have thought 3 inches would make any difference until you fish with it.
- 7'9" 4wt- along the lines of the 3wt, but with a slightly faster action for more punch in open areas, and steering capabilities for bigger fish.
- 8'9" 5wt- the most awesome blend of delicacy and power. A true dry fly presentation rod, that is just as capable at throwing tungsten nymphs to trophy trout. Again 3 inches literally makes a world of difference in the feel, accuracy and fishabilty.
- 10' 5wt- exceptional presentation loch and Czech nymphing style rod. Also great in float tubes.
- 9" 6wt- larger river/lake rod, that is the first choice for NZ travellers, one flick, let alone a cast, and you will know what we mean when we say first choice!
- 10' 7wt- Saltwater weapon, casting heavy weighted flies into the wind. Ideal Weipa/barra/trevally rod.
- 8' 10wt- The bulldog of fly rods. Shorter length doesn't affect distance greatly due to the nature of saltwater shooting lines and weighted flies, but they literally come into their own when it comes to secure hook ups and fish fighting ability. Ideally suited to targeting barra in timbered areas, and hard fighters like tuna, mackeral and GT's.
