Product details
The Soldarini Hydropsyche Full Contact XUL range consists of technical fly rods designed for euro nymphing and fine river fishing. Built with ultra-light XUL carbon, these rods feature slim, responsive, and perfectly balanced blanks. This construction provides excellent feedback, essential for detecting subtle takes and maintaining precise drift control.
The rods are designed to keep more line off the water, improve presentation accuracy, and reduce fatigue during long fishing sessions. Their progressive action ensures controlled hook sets and secure fights, even when using very fine leaders. This range targets demanding fly anglers fishing in technical river conditions.
The Hydropsyche Full Contact XUL 10’2 #0-3 measures approximately 310 cm and weighs around 95 grams.
