NYMPHING SETUP
The fact of the matter is this: there’s no better way to search the bathtub-sized bucket beneath that half-exposed root wad, or that frothy piece of pocket-water that is the bane of all dry fly drifts. You know there’s a big cutthroat down there that’s just been waiting—almost begging—for some tasty morsel to drift three inches from its head. It would almost be offensive if you didn’t try. As we all know too well (sometimes, admittedly, to the point of frustration) trout do most of their eating under water. So pull out that bright pink bobber you’ve been hiding in your pack all summer, or drop a pheasant tail off that sad hunk of foam that no trout has looked at in months. Explore our setups dialed to fishing nymphs.

IGNITER
The ultra-powerful and fast action of the IGNITER family is going to excel on windy rivers or large stillwaters where long leaders and heavy indicator rigs need turning over - particularly with overhead casts. The increased power from tip-to-butt will drive high line speeds, carry longer lengths of line, and turnover these rigs with less effort from the angler.
Anglers with a powerful casting stroke that are looking for maximum distance with their nymphing rigs will find the IGNITER to be a fantastic asset in the tool-kit.

Ultra-powerful butt-to-tip blank construction drives very high line speeds that are necessary when delivering long indicator rigs at distance.
