Horizon Tactical Freshwater Fly Rod

The Horizon Tactical Freshwater Fly Rod series of fly rods is the evolution of renowned Horizon TRS and XRS series of fly rods.

Utilizing the latest technologies in blank construction and Nanohoop Technology, the HORIZON Tactical Freshwater Series of fly rods will redefine your thoughts on fly fishing rods.

Horizon Tactical Freshwater Series 180-4

1-Weight, 8-foot 0-inch, 4-piece rod.

This is the perfect rod for small, high country streams where presenting small dry flies and nymphs to wary trout is the order of the day. It has a quick and responsive action, allowing the angler to make minimal false casts and deliver the fly accurately to the target. The shorter 8-foot length aids in accuracy and presentation.

5-Weight, 9-foot 0-inch, 4-piece rod.

Building on the Horizon XRS’s reputation, the TFS 590-4 is the ideal stillwater trout rod and will handle any smallmouth yellowfish you’ll tangle with on rivers like the Vaal and Orange. We tested a number of 5-wt rods from the manufacturer before we settled on this taper – it will load at short ranges with a line like Scientific Anglers MPX taper but will effortlessly cast an entire fly line to the middle distance. For anglers looking for a 5-wt rod that will do it all, then this is the rod for you.
