Guideline LXi T-Pac Switch 11'6

Guideline lxi t

The very popular 11’6” switch rods have been moved into the range of multi-piece rods by having one more piece added to them. Now you can fit them in your fishing bag and do not need to carry extra rod containers on your next fishing trip. There are three different models, 6/7, 7/8 and 8/9 to choose from. These rods are configured with hybrid front handles that work very well both as single hand and double- Hand grip. The short back handle gives a good, secure hold for double hand casting and at the same time, it is small enough not to interfere with your single hand casting.

The lightweight recoil single leg and stripper guides help the rod action and creates a nice, tip light and crisp feeling in the blank. These rods have a relatively stiff tip that can handle both standard scandi heads and heavier skagit type heads equally well. They are powerful and you will be surprised at the length of the cast you can power out with these rods. The 6/7 weight rod makes a great tool for brown Trout or fishing for smaller grilse sized Salmon. The 7/8 weight rod is very useful as an allrounder for both larger, migratory browns and for sea Trout and medium sized Salmon. This rod loves a compact 7/8 line set up. The 8/9 weight rod is powerful and handles scandi lines in weights from 21 grams and performs superb with a 24 gram scandi or multi tip switch line. For short skagit heads, weights up around the 20-22 gram/320-350 grains mark + tip are a great option.

Lxi rods have grey/green metallic blanks and are fitted with hard anodized, black reel seats with flat sides incorporating lxi laser engraved logos. Cork grips are fitted with nice trims in rubber cork and are slightly shorter to generate more reserve power. To add to the performance and reduce weight, guideline has fitted rec recoil stripper guides and single leg guides on all rods. New, mesh rod bags keep things light and breathable. Together with new developed, extremely lightweight tubes, you are sure not to carry any unnecessary weight when checking in for your next fishing trip. All rods on this page will fit nicely into a gl roller bag when you travel.
