Swift MK II Fly Rod Series
The quality of
materials, the design and make-up, together with a beautiful silver
finish have combined to make the Swift MkII a serious performer on the
world stage. Especially so when considering the cost. Firm, powerful
actions suit the angler with a quick precise casting style. Many of
these Swift aficionados are competition anglers, or at least those who
fish reservoirs and large stillwaters. The Swift can throw a tight
controlled loop with ease, hook and hold a mature grown-on rainbow yet
still effortlessly roll cast a short line when required. This supreme
adaptability provides an ideal solution to every problem the
experienced stillwater angler will ever face. Of course, if you partner the Swift MkII rod with the Swift
reel, you'll have a package that will delight the eye and satisfy all
your angling ambitions for years to come. This Swift range performs at
the very highest level - and at a price that is very affordable.
To complete the range, we've introduced two new models for 2007 specifically for the river fisherman.
- The 8' #4 takes the Swift into the realm of the brook and small chalk stream angler.
- The new 8' 6" #5 is slightly quicker with a fraction more power and the ability to turnover big flies in a breeze.
