Hardy Tactus Nymphing

The Hardy Tactus Nymphing is a long, light nymph rod for modern European-style nymphing techniques. It comes with two interchangeable tips, so the rod can be matched to fly weight and leader.

The rod combines Hardy's Sintrix FLT construction with specialised nymphing tapers, making it light, sensitive and stable despite its length. A powerful butt section gives control over large fish, while a supple, high-recovery tip presents lightweight nymph rigs accurately.

The traditional tubular carbon tip gives a familiar feel and load for heavier flies and multi-fly rigs. The solid nano-carbon tip is more sensitive and loads with light flies, making them easier to cast and control on fine leaders.
