XXT FLY RODS     Product Information   Hard to improve upon what might be the best all-around rod on the market when you are targeting anything that requires a 6wt and above, whether you’re fishing in Fresh Water or in the Salt the XXT is the perfect blend of power and speed. Working with Lou Tabory a legend in the Fly Fishing Community to achieve this perfect Rod was a true collaboration and something we are very proud of here at Albright. This collaboration of angling minds brought to life an amazing series of great casting, great fishing, no-nonsense fly rods that are unmatched no matter what the price even for the most experienced Anglers. Using a blend of 30/36/40 ton Carbon with top notch Fuji Components and a revamped cork handle with Composite end caps for the hard core Angler, the progressive taper loads quickly at the tip with a smooth transfer to the mid-tip, turning over large flies like they were midges.   The lower portion of the rod is ready for battle with any fish and pulls sinking line out of water like a floating line. Improved strength in the butt section with our cross weave scrim added ensures a lightweight yet durable fly rod from 6wt-14. Hardened titanium-bridged strippers incorporate super-strong SIC rings for long life. Oversized hard-chrome snakes and tip-tops allow for uninhibited, long casts. To complement an already superior rod we use a heavy-duty, machined, anodized aluminum reel seat with double up-locking hardware to make sure that reel stays nice and snug. Every rod comes in a premium, Cordura-covered hard case for added protection along with a cloth rod sock. Whatever fish you are targeting in Alaska for trout, Belize Bones, or even taming tuna here in the Northeast we have the rod for you. Look around, you'll find that our competitor's comparable fly rods sell for as much as $695 and then some. Save yourself some money by purchasing direct. In addition for those BIG Game Enthusiasts we have added a 2nd Handle with a Fore-grip for the 10wt-12wt to give you the option when you are hunting that Trophy fish.

Adding a 6 weight to this Series really rounds out the selection. The ability to test your Angling ability now comes into play on All Levels. This Rod can combat those Windy Hot Summer Days on the Flats or when you’re making that Last Cast with a Streamer. This little Rocket can easily handle all of your Smallmouth or Largemouth Bass needs or even the High Intensity Fight of an 8lb Bonefish. Casing Hoppers while enjoying a Float Trip along the Colorado River is made even easier with the Power and Elegance of this 6 weight..

Often overlooked in the Rod Lineup because many Anglers are unsure of when a 7 weight can be used. It provides Versatility and a Great Fight when you have a Fish ON. This Rocket is now even faster with the Stripping Guides being reduced. Take it with you on your next Bonefish Trip or to Alaska for Giant Rainbows and you won’t be disappointed. It Excels at Kicking Over heavily weighted Bugs like Flesh Flies when meat-eating Alaska Trout are on the list or when throwing Hoppers.
