P4 Forest 8'6
Sporting a lovely brown wrapping combined with burnt orange edging, a black reel seat with wooden spacer, the P4 Forest has a more traditional look.
The P4 8'6" blank:
8’6” is something you could call the “natural” length of a 4 weight rod. Many customers asked for this rod so we tried very hard to get the best of both worlds, the joy of casting and the presentation qualities of the 8’ P4 and the versatility of the 9’ version.
Even we were surprised by the extremely wide optimal casting range of the new 8’6” P4. It does everything the other two 4 weights do but it does not have any shortcoming when casting just off the tip or when you go for some serious 4 weight fishing distance. It is so intuitive to cast and has an incredibly lively feel. As you would expect from any Stickman rod the swing weight is very-very light. The 8’6” P4 works with AFTM conform lines but casts half weight heavy lines just as good. When you think you have reached the limit it can go one step further, either in the direction of extra distance or an even more gentle presentation.
All our rods are hand built to order one at a time and are endlessly customizable. Please make an inquiry on current lead times before placing your order.
