Not only do the Imperial fly rods cast a fly line beautifully, they also cast quite a shadow of doubt on how similar rods could possibly sell for so much more.
Built on our premium SC II graphite blanks, they deliver a moderate, progressive action that's ideally suited for making delicate presentations particularly in the lighter-line models.
But don't think for a second that these rods lack guts. The mid-line models throw a big bushy dry or weighted Wooly Bugger with serious authority. And the heavier line rods pack power to spare -- with the punch to cut through high winds and handle all the heavy chuck-and-duck nymphing or streamer throwing you can toss out.
All Imperial fly rods are made from premium-quality SC II graphite blanks. An uplocking, anodized aluminum reel seat
with select walnut inserts is standard on the lighter versions of the Imperial Series.An all-aluminum reel seats on heavier line models.(all seats comply with AAFTA fly reel foot standards.)
The Imperial Rods are wrapped with premium hard-chrome snake guides and are fitted with select-grade cork handles. A rugged Cordura®-covered rod case with divided nylon liner accompanies your purchase.
Unconditional lifetime warranty backed by unmatched St. Croix Service.
