Guideline LPX Chrome - Switch Fly Rod

Guideline LPX Chrome Switch comes with a whole new kind of action, an action you've never known before that gives you everything you desire. C. A. P M4. 0™ technology gives you an ultra-light blade with phenomenal stability and response.

The entire LPX series from Guideline comes with a completely new type of action and design. The fly rod loads ¾ onto the blade and power develops earlier in the cast, without sacrificing any rod speed. They have a lightness, stability and are responsive in a way that you have never felt before in a rod from Guideline. The LPX Chrome is a powerful Switch fly rod designed for fly fishing for brown trout, salmon, sea trout and steelhead. A premium rod that you rarely see in these price ranges.

The secret behind the distinctive action on the rod is the new C. A. P M4. 0™ technology, an advanced storage of carbon fiber plates creates a truly unique action, which has everything you could want. The action is best described as medium-fast, progressive and with a quick recovery. The top part has great stability for tight lines and the power to lift heavy sink lines. During the cast you simply load the lower parts of the rod, a part that delivers a remarkable kick and catapult effect in the stop, this allows you to make long casts with hardly any power at all. The unique lateral stability that LPX Chrome possesses means that the fly line follows your rod incredibly well as you swing and rotate during the cast. This leads to more precise casts, higher line speed and better line arcs. A truly unique action that will set a standard for all Guideline fly rods to come.

The LPX Chrome Switch has a specially designed roller seat and handle with FLOR-grade quality cork, with rubber inserts as reinforcement to withstand many and tough years along the river. These 11'7" long rods are designed to handle larger flies trout, salmon and sea trout.

We recommend using these fly rods with lines such as Guideline 3D+, 4D Compact Multi Tip.
