Ron Thompson Power-shoot 9' #5-6 fly rod - great conditionThe Ron Thompson Power-shoot 9' #5-6 is a versatile carbon fly fishing rod designed primarily for beginners and intermediate anglers targeting trout, grayling, or small still water species. Core Specifications Length: 9 feet (approximately 270 cm) – the industry-standard all-rounder length for a balance of distance and control. Line Rating: AFTM #5-6 – handles lighter #5 presentation lines for rivers and mid-weight #6 lines for cutting through wind on lakes. Blank Material: Carbon/Composite construction – provides a robust build without being overly stiff. Target Species: Rainbow trout, brown trout, and coarse fish on small lakes, ponds, and medium-to-large rivers. Best Uses and Setup Recommendations Because of its #5-6 rating, this rod bridges the gap between precision river fishing and light reservoir fishing. Line Choice: Use a Weight Forward (WF5F or WF6F) floating fly line if you are practicing casting or fishing dries and light nymphs on the surface. Drop down to a #5 line for delicate presentation, or push up to a #6 line to help load the rod faster if you are a beginner. Reel Pairing: Look for an entry-level composite or die-cast aluminium fly reel rated for #5/6 lines Lovely Dark blue alligator skin type colour on all 3 pieces of rod, truly is a fantastic looking fly rod. Comes with very dark blue strong aluminium carry case, with room for a reel as well. Zips up to open and close. Really great product to buy.
