Talon RA Double Handed fly rod, a Spey type rod

The Talon RA WMD Overhead Double Handed fly rod has been years in the research, design and development. As a result, Talon RA had to have build a completely new blank, not just buy in a blank from some one elses lineup of Doubles, the all same except for the logo type of rod, like so many others, the only difference being the price.

The WMD Double is built from a very high modulus graphite, 58million, with lightweight advanced resins and finished in a beautiful deep Ocean Blue colour, the same matching colour and bindings/wrappings as the Talon RA Traveller series of single handed 9 foot rods.

Action, best described as XF, Extra Fast, for a Double.
High speed casting, yes, this is the tool for you.

With the XF action comes a fast and crisp, very light weight rod that performs beyond what was once thought to be possible. And yet, still have a very responsive tip, a tip section that will allow you to fish a 6 pound tippet, with the 12 footer, a 8 pound tippet with the 14 footer or, with your increased skill levels even a 6 pound tippet on the 14 footer.

However, with both rods there is still ample butt and lower section strength to engage fish with a heavier tippet size.

The grips, only the shortest possible lengths have been used, so as not to dampen the rod's crisp action. Which is ideal for both Overhead and Underhand casting.

Then Talon reduced the epoxy binding finish down to the very minimum to reduce the weight, which help allow the rod to achieve it's amazing performance, a performance factor that will amaze you.

A Stainless Steel hook keeper has also been attached, to complete the rod.

To add a special touch, a logo has added to each side of each joint on the rod to enable easy lineup of the sections.

Then to make your travel easier, Talon RA decided on 4 sections, so you can simply drop the rod tube into your travel bag, to reduce the chance of light fingers, that just may other have found your new rod.
