Cortland Nymph Series Fly Rods

 I firmly believe these rods punch far above their price tag. I would say that these are the best entry level Euro nymphing rods currently on the market. They have updated materials which have resulted in a lighter and more durable rod than their predecessor the Competition Nymph Rod (Devin Olsen's view of these rods)

Cortland’s Nymph series fly rods were specifically designed for modern nymphing techniques. Built on a super light graphite blank which dampens and recovers quickly for exceptional feel. The low reflective, matte black finish allows for an extremely stealthy approach while providing an addition layer of protection. The down-locking reel seat combined with the composite fighting butt allows for exceptional balance and fast hook sets. Nymph Series fly rods feature over-sized light wire single foot guides for easier passage of fly line, monofilament and knots. All ferrules and guides are coated with highly durable epoxy, resisting cracks, flex stress and excessive knots. Finished with alignment dots, size specific rod bags and a protective cordura rod tube.
